State-capture inquiry is also expected to hear evidence on law-enforcement agencies

State-capture commission hearings resume this week, and its first business will be an application that could result in former president Jacob Zuma being summoned to appear before the commission.

The former president denies any wrongdoing and has accused the commission, which he established, of being politicised, lacking impartiality and being biased against him. From Wednesday this week to January 22, the commission is expected to hear evidence relating to law-enforcement agencies. The chair “determined [January] 27 to [January] 31 as the dates for the former president’s further appearance before the commission”, said Shabalala.

The by-election is a critical test for the DA as the rural town of Schweizer-Reneke was at the heart of a racial debacle in which a teacher was accused of being racist before the facts were established.

Why still bother with this Zondo Commission? it’s only just flogging a dead horse and wasting tax payer moneys in the process. How much real evidence is still remaining? Surely over time evidence gets eroded and shrinkage starts to occur.
