Stuart Scharnick was arrested for intimidation this week after his confrontation with Sowetan journalist Herman Moloi at the Madlanga Commission. Scharnick was there supporting MP Fadiel Adams.
This is the same character who was part of Lt-Gen Shadrack Sibiya’s entourage when he appeared before the ad hoc committee. Imagine the audacity of this Rambo-wannabe trying to scare a journalist at work.
Can someone school him on press freedom? Good thing Moloi had him arrested. Next time this moegoe will learn to pick on someone his own size.
