Suspended ANC Youth League leader Julius Malema has been accused of stealing a prime piece of land in Polokwane, Limpopo in the suburb of Ster Park, police said on Sunday.
Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi said Polokwane police and the commercial crimes unit were investigating the case.
Businessman Matane Mphahlele has opened a criminal case against Malema, lawyer Maboku Mangena, Clifford Motsepe, the head of Limpopo's housing department, as well as senior municipal officers, City Press reported.
According to Mphahlele, Malema illegally transferred the plot into his own name in 2007 and resold it the following month for more than three times the price.
The newspaper further reported that Mangena and municipal officials allegedly helped Malema with the transfer. -- Sapa
