ANC Youth League President Julius Malema is to face charges in the Johannesburg Equity Court over his remarks that Jacob Zuma's rape accuser enjoyed herself with the now-State president.

The Sonke Gender Justice NGO laid a complaint against the fire-brand leader, who will have to defend his comments and prove that they did not undermine women's dignity or be forced to publicly apologise.

Malema, however, says he knows nothing of the charges.

"I don't know about this. Let those people who want publicity go to court, because they won't find me there," Malema told the Cape Times.

"I don't have time for this," he added.

The head of advocacy for The Sonke Gender Justice NGO, Mbuyiselo Botha, who laid the complaint, is an ANC member himself.

Malema had told university students in late January this year that when a women doesn't enjoy sex, she leaves early the next morning.

"Those who had a nice time will wait until the sun comes out, request breakfast and ask for taxi money. You can't ask for money from somebody who raped you."
