Fake Interpreter at Mandela memorial has a rap sheet, that includes murder, and rape charge..



He has a rap sheet including break in, vandalism,public disturbance, rape, attempted murder and kidnapping. Note these are only charges, investigation hasn't found if he was found guilty of any. Murder charges were dropped because the court found him mentally unfit. News said Obama team says they will not comment until their own investigation is complete.

1) Citing court documents, a South African TV news outlet reported that Jantjie allegedly faced a murder charge in 2003. It is unknown whether the case was ever concluded. eNCA says the court file is empty. eNCA's investigation also found that Jantjie faced rape in 1994, theft in 1995, housebreaking in 1997, malicious damage to property in 1998, murder, attempted murder and kidnapping charges in 2003. Many of the charges, according to eNCA, were dropped because he was mentally unfit to stand trial.
