Cde Domza People should not use media to fight political battles ,Julius is under attack because he is the president of the YL, ,hence leadership of the youth league convened a Press conference to support him, in the statement the Youth League says " If there is any wrong doing on the part of the Trust, ANC Youth League President is open and ready for investigations by SARS and any other law enforcement agencies. If there are citizens who believe that there is wrong-doing, they should report such to the Law enforcement agencies and not to Newspapers. All this should never be done to achieve narrow political scores, like some right-wing formations have already started."
The statement continues "The President of the ANC Youth League has on several occasions assisted orphanages, contributed to the education of students in Universities and bought wheelchairs for needy and physically disabled children in Ikwezi Lokusa in the Eastern Cape. In all these instances, the resources used to help needy and poor citizens came from the Ratanang Family Trust, which is not a secret fund; because it is openly displayed in some of the work it has helped on. If the Trust was a secret Trust as alleged, it could have not been openly displayed on Church officially opened by President Zuma in front of all media. "Lets read with open Minds ... How is it a secret when the President (Cde Jacob Zuma) knew about it? Domza do u differ so much with Cde Julius so much that you are found to be agreeing and aligning with AFRIFORUM? What happened to innocent till proven guilty ??Judge Lamont was presiding over a city press case on whether to publish or not ,the hearing has no bearing on the trust Fund -SARS and all agencies must do their work .
