Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane. Picture: ESA ALEXANDER / SUNDAY TIMES
Mkhwebane on Tuesday said she had received allegations that shortly after implicated parties in her investigation were served with subpoenas, Sars held a meeting attended by most of the parties and that, “at the meeting concerned, the kind of responses she received from the institution and the minister were co-ordinated”.
Gordhan’s lawyer, Tebogo Malatji, said his client took “serious issue” with the public protector’s suggestion of collusion. “We will be challenging the public protector to provide the factual basis for the statement suggesting that the minister is acting in concert with others and why he is referred to as an implicated party,” he said.
The Public Protector Act states that her office will not investigate complaints that have been referred to her office within two years from the occurrence, except if there were special circumstances.
Dead right
Is it not her job to investigate in order to get this 'proof'?
Lol Paraffin is twisting things
She is just another SA embarrassment
What is it going to take for Ramaphosa to comprehend the damage that clown is doing ? 🙄
