Pillay’s pension: Another court defeat for Mkhwebane - The Mail & Guardian

suffered another court defeat on Wednesday when the high court in Pretoria dismissed her application for leave to appeal its December ruling setting aside her report on Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan when he was finance minister.

In December, the court concluded that Mkhwebane had made a material error of law when she decided that Gordhan’s approval in 2010, during his tenure as finance minister, of the early retirement of South African Revenue Service deputy commissioner Ivan Pillay was improper. Last month advocate Dali Mpofu, who appeared for Mkhwebane, referred to this when he cross-examined Gordhan on behalf of former Sars commissioner Tom Moyane at the Zondo commission into state capture.

“We are satisfied that all the issues in the application for leave to appeal and cross-appeal were fully covered and considered in the judgment. We are therefore of the view that there are no reasonable prospects of success of the appeal … Therefore, the application for leave to appeal and cross-appeal the judgment fall to be dismissed,” the court ruled.

It's unbelievable, really it's clear there is a miscarriage of justice and conspiracy against the office of the PP, when it comes to certain cases involving the powerful.
