Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>ANC chief whip Pemmy Majodina says the ruling party will wait to hear the outcome of ANC MP Sibusiso Kula’s bail application on Friday before deciding on any internal recourse.<\/p>\n

Kula is accused of killing his wife, Jennifer Mohlomi, 31, at their home in Kanana, North West, two months ago.<\/p>\n

Kula allegedly lied to the police about what happened to his wife the night she was stabbed and killed.<\/p>\n

He is accused of premeditated murder.<\/p>\n

Majodina spoke to News24 at the memorial service of Frene Ginwala, a staunch women’s rights activist.<\/p>\n

If Kula is denied bail, then his MP post will become vacant.<\/p>\n

Majodina said the step-aside rule was very clear, but added that the party would only have clarity on their position on Friday.<\/p>\n

The step-aside rule is an internal ANC policy, in which its members must step aside from party and government participation if they are charged with corruption or other serious crimes.<\/p>\n

She said she had already drafted her arguments if he was denied bail.<\/p>\n

Women’s rights have been included in the Constitution’s Bill of Rights.<\/p>\n

Many of these rights were attributed to the Women’s Charter, which came from the leadership of Ginwala.<\/p>\n
