LEADER of the controversial March and March movement, Jacinta NgobeseZuma, says the government should be blamed for the murder of media personality Warrick Stock, popularly known as DJ Warras.

Ngobese-Zuma made the remarks on Friday during a picket at Durban City Hall in Church Square, where supporters gathered to demand justice and pay tribute to DJ Warras.

Some South Africans have been backing her call for accountability, while others have urged restraint as police investigations continue.

"We have a picket today in memory of DJ Warras and the patriot that he was. We are very saddened by his passing because it speaks to the issues we've been talking about since he started March and March, particularly hijacked buildings," Ngobese-Zuma said.
