Suspended public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane has denied being biased when she issued a report on the so-called rogue unit at Sars.Mkhwebane told the parliamentary committee inquiring into her fitness to hold office on Thursday that it should not “rubber stamp” findings of bias made by the Pretoria high court in December 2020 when it set aside her report on the matter.
When asked by her advocate, Dali Mpofu, where the finding of her not engaging with the report came from, Mkhwebane said it was concerning because the report was before the three judges.If they applied their minds to evidence before them they would have seen I had clearly stated this was what the Nugent report said.“The Sars commission of inquiry [into tax administration and governance] report is the Nugent report.
Nobody really gives a shit what she thinks. Fire the cow.
