Mthatha – Mandla Mandela, the grandson of late former president Nelson Mandela, is appealing both his sentence and conviction for assault.
This was revealed at the Mthatha Regional Court on Wednesday morning, shortly after Magistrate Noluthando Conjwa sentenced the Mvezo chief to two years imprisonment with an option of a R10 000 fine, R2 000 of which has been suspended for a year. If he fails to pay he will go to jail for a year.
The sentence has the condition that Mandela is not found guilty with a similar offence in the said period.
