Trouble on four fronts for Malema

The Hawks have confirmed that they are investigating Julius Malema for fraud and corruption.

AfriForum opened a case against the ANC Youth League leader last month after it was reported that he had a trust fund used to house deposits from business people.

Hawks spokesperson McIntosh Polela says the police unit decided to conduct the investigation just over a week ago.

Malema is already facing disciplinary action by the ANC.

In another move which might sink Malema's political aspirations, Public Protector Thuli Madonsela will investigate the awarding of tenders by the Limpopo government to On-Point Engineering, a company linked to the Youth League leader.

The Revenue Service is also said to be investigating Malema’s tax matters.
