Stock photoThe Special Investigating Unit on Monday applied for leave to appeal the decision of the Pretoria high court relating to its investigation into the affairs of Telkom.
The court found Telkom was not a state institution and the SIU could not investigate allegations of maladministration, malpractice and possible corruption in the company.After consulting our legal team, the SIU believes there is reason for an appeal. The court needs to give a fuller picture of what constitutes a state institution as this can set a legal precedent on which institutions the SIU can exercise its powers,” the unit said.
