Strict security measures are in place at the Polokwane Magistrates' Court, where the corruption trial of Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema and four others is expected to begin on Monday morning.
Malema is accused of making nearly R4 million rand from corrupt activities.
He is out on bail of R10 000 and faces charges of fraud, corruption, money-laundering, and racketeering.
His co-accused are his business associates Kagisho Dichabe, Lesiba Gwangwa, Helen Moreroa, and Makgetsi Manthata.
They are out on bail of R40 000 each.
The State alleges Malema and the others misrepresented themselves to the Limpopo roads and transport department, leading to a R52-million contract being awarded to On-Point Engineering.
