Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan’s legal team filed a review application on Tuesday morning asking the High Court in Pretoria to set aside a recent report by Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane which found that he flouted the Constitution.

The public protector directed President Cyril Ramaphosa to “take appropriate disciplinary action” against Gordhan, finding that his approval of Pillay’s retirement amounted to “improper conduct” and was a violation of the constitution.
