Winnie Mandela greeted by supporters outside court
After a conviction for theft and fraud involving about €108,000, Winnie Madikizela-Mandela was met outside the Pretoria court by a group of about 30 students, chanting “Viva Winnie viva,” with raised fists.
She smiled at the group and raised her fist.
One young man said he was disappointed by the judgement and that the ANC had deserted her. He said all she had been trying to do was help the poor.
“I don’t think she deserves this type of treatment,” he said.
