used against protesters supporting the leader of the ANC youth, who faces a disciplinary hearing

Police in South Africa have used water cannons and stun grenades in the fight against the supporters of the head of the youth wing of the ANC, which faces possible expulsion from the party in a power struggle with the president, Jacob Zuma.

As the tension within the ANC has been spread by disturbing the peace, the demonstrators back Julius Malema, a charismatic populist, but still controversial, threw stones and bottles at police and burned flags and posters of Zuma's ANC. "Zuma has to do!" sung.

riot police responded with water cannons and stun grenades, the closure of a number of streets near the headquarters of the ANC in downtown Johannesburg as fans blowing vuvuzela Malema tried to stop traffic.

Malema has been identified as a possible successor to Zuma as party president, as more or less guaranteed the presidency in a country led by the ANC, without interruption since the end of apartheid in 1994. However, now faces a disciplinary hearing weekend long, I could see that the ANC suspended or banned permanently, throwing him into the political wilderness.

controversy 30 years, which has generated for his campaign to nationalize the critical issue of the mining industry of South Africa and a life of luxury was fined Discipline Committee of the ANC last year for alleged infringement of Zuma. Malema was warned that its members would be suspended if convicted of the party split again in two years.

The penalty may be imposed if the Committee accepts Malema brought the ANC into disrepute by a youth league statement calling for the overthrow of the democratically elected government in neighboring Botswana.

Malema has also refused to budge on their calls for the nationalization of mines, a position that has scared off foreign investors and prompted warnings from the international financial isolation. He said: "Nationalism is never going to change the expropriation without compensation is never going to change if we expel or not expel us, these resolutions will never change ..."

Many of those who fought the police in central Johannesburg was brought by bus organized by the youth wing.

The proposed nationalization of the mines will be discussed at that meeting of the ANC in next year which Zuma will seek re-election.
Malema called a BBC journalist "a bloody agent" and threw a press conference he said a woman who accused Zuma of raping her was a "good time" and argued that white South Africans should be treated as "criminals" by stealing the land of black people. "This year was also taken to the court to sing a song during the apartheid era of protest containing the words "kill the Boer '.
