Overview

• Gauteng police confirmed an inquiry docket after the EFF filed a criminal complaint against Operation Dudula and its leader, Zandile Dubula.
• The investigation follows a Malawian mother’s account that she was prevented from entering an Alexandra clinic before her one-year-old child died.
• Authorities said the case will be referred to prosecutors for a decision once investigators finalize the docket.
• Operation Dudula denied directing members to block clinic access and called claims linking the movement to the death reckless and misleading.
• Gauteng Health MEC Nomantu Nkomo-Ralehoko urged an end to unlawful clinic blockades as the EFF accuses police of allowing vigilante actions at public facilities.
