Malema is the leader of the 4th largest party in Parliament, a radical left Marxist party called EFF.
He has been sentenced to 5 years in prison. He will not be able to serve in Parliament for his imprisonment, and for five years after his sentence is completed.
The party is built around him. If he cannot serve, it will lead to a major shift in the party and therefore in South African politics.
