In addition to the parliamentary process, Mkhwebane is also being probed for perjury by the Hawks, and the SA Revenue Service is conducting an audit into her financial affairs.
Modise shot back on Thursday, insisting in a letter that the process was neither unconstitutional nor unlawful, as Mkhwebane had claimed. “You have had serious comments by very high-profile people like ministers, commenting about this Public Protector. So, they will try everything they can,” she said, adding that “previously, there was a strategy to bankrupt me with these personal cost orders”.
Several court judgments against Mkhwebane have also bolstered the DA’s case, including Constitutional Court judges remarking that Mkhwebane had acted dishonestly during the review case of the Absa lifeboat investigation – although a minority judgment by Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng disagreed. “I do not understand why some members of the ANC have a problem and speak in corners when we say we cannot work with the opposition,” he said.He said that even before the panel to assess the complaint was established, the group would submit a report to the Speaker, highlighting Mkhwebane’s good work for consideration by the House.
She said her work was conducted as “a juristic person”, and therefore disagreed with the charge that she committed perjury in her affidavit for the Absa/Bankorp lifeboat review case.She insisted that she had been honest in her affidavits, and that discrepancies that were deemed “lies” under oath were unfortunate mistakes.
