Former school teacher and Media24 journalist Willem Breytenbach has pleaded guilty to seven charges of indecent assault and three charges of sexual assault in the Cape Town Regional Court. The case, which has drawn widespread attention, highlights the gravity of the charges and the betrayal of public trust linked to Breytenbach’s previous roles in education and journalism.

The guilty plea marks a pivotal moment in a case that has shaken the public, sparking debates about accountability and the treatment of perpetrators in influential positions.

Adding to the discourse, Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema criticized the media’s coverage of Breytenbach’s case, particularly the absence of his picture in reports. Malema, known for his vocal critiques, posted on social media, saying: “You don’t have his picture, witches?” His comment underscores frustrations about perceived inconsistencies in how the media handles cases involving public figures, especially those of different socio-political backgrounds.

This incident has reignited discussions around media ethics, specifically regarding the publication of images of accused or convicted individuals. Some argue that prominent figures should be fully exposed to public scrutiny, while others caution against sensationalism, particularly in cases that have not been fully adjudicated.

The case also underscores broader issues of accountability within media and the justice system. The way public figures are reported on and prosecuted shapes societal perceptions and raises questions about fairness, bias, and transparency in both institutions.

As Breytenbach faces the consequences of his actions, the ongoing public discourse emphasizes the need for consistency in how similar cases are handled to maintain trust in both the justice system and the media.
