WATCH: ANC security officials tell journalist to open a police case

The walk-about by newly elected ANC president Cyril Ramaphosa was marred by an incident where a journalist was manhandled.


An ANC security official was caught on camera shoving a journalist out of Nasrec in the vicinity of Gate 5.

As early as Saturday the media has been complaining bitterly about the aggressive and heavy-handed manner in which security deals with reporters and photographers. In most instances, they threaten to kick them out of Nasrec.

In the video below, the security officer who is seen manhandling journalist Sam Mkhokheli outside of the venue in another video, tells him to to go the nearest police station a police case and refuses to hand back his accreditation.
