The interview process, which began on Monday, is scheduled to end on October 11.
Malema questioned Phatudi’s casual attitude toward being nominated by a politician. “DCJ and judge, I think you are captured because you see nothing wrong with being nominated by a politician and your answer is that is not from EFF and ANC and all that.
“The mayor is from ANC, he’s not from SEO or some church or anything. He’s from ANC and you see nothing wrong with that.
“Why would a judge who is not captured not see anything wrong with being nominated by a politician, irrespective of the political party, and still do not want to disassociate yourself?”, Malema said.

During the interviews, Malema also questioned why South Africa does not have a court to deal with the scourge of rape and violence against women.
The red berets leader also asked judge Constance Mocumie about the South African justice system and gender-based violence.
“There is a special court for elections, because these power mongers may feel that they have been robbed and therefore they can even fight to a point where war. Elections have got the potential to cause a civil war in a country.
“That’s why there must be a speedily process to resolve them so that you avoid potential war. That’s why there’s a special court for electoral issues.
“There is no war on elections, but already there is an electoral court.” Malema said.
Going further he said that war has been declared against women. “There is a war on women. When we wake up, we don’t ask if there was a woman raped. We ask how many were there raped, that’s how abnormal we’ve become as a society.
“We’ve become a sick society, how many have been killed, not whether a woman has been killed or not. A war has been declared already.
“Have you not reached a point where we think a special court must be established to deal with these matters in a manner that will give confidence to society, and send a strong message to the perpetrators that the country now has moved from talking into action,” Malema added.
