No one has been arrested yet in connection with yesterday’s violence when supporters of ANC Youth League president Julius Malema clashed with police at Luthuli House in Johannesburg.

The police’s Lungelo Dlamini says they are studying video footage to try and identify culprits.

A police member had to have stitches after being hit by a rock.

At least seven journalists had objects thrown at them, while some female journalists were groped and sexually threatened.

Only a handful of young people have gathered today as Malema’s disciplinary hearing resumed.
