DURBAN - KWAZULU-NATAL political activist Jacky Shandu is expected to spend the next three days behind bars following his first appearance in the Durban Magistrate's Court today.
Shandu faces charges of Contravention of the Riotous Assemblies Act 17 of 1956 and two counts of incitement to commit public violence. The 37-year-old handed himself over to police at Durban's Central SAPS station yesterday afternoon after he was informed, by a police officer, of the charges lodged against him.
Shandu, who is the convenor of the #JusticeForPhoenixMassacareVictims, led a march to the Durban City Hall on Thursday last week. Addressing the crowd, Shandu is alleged to have chanted;"One settler, one bullet. One Indian, one bullet", which outraged many in the Durban community.
