JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA (ADV) – The South African National Defence Force (SANDF) has distanced itself from a man who appeared on news wearing their camouflage.

“We are confirming that the young man who was interviewed on eTV news yesterday around 09h30 at University of Western Cape (UWC), wearing a SANDF camouflage shirt and the EFF beret is not a SANDF member,” reads a statement issued by SA Defence Corporate Communication.

The SANDF also cautioned the public from wearing their regalia.

“We also want to reiterate that, wearing the SANDF uniform when you are not a SANDF member is a punishable offense and anyone who is caught committing this illegal act will be prosecuted.”
