Pravin Gordhan takes public protector to court after he's found to have violated constitution.

Public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane recommended President Cyril Ramaphosa take disciplinary action against Gordhan for “violating the constitution” by using public funds to “irregularly” approve Pillay’s early retirement.

“The report is also riddled with reviewable errors. It misstates the applicable legal framework for the approval of Mr Pillay’s early retirement with full benefits. It rests its findings and remedial action on flawed logic and a misunderstanding of the facts. It also is the product of a procedurally unfair and flawed process,” Gordhan argues.

Oupa Magashula also takes public protector to task over report“The indecent haste with which the Public Protector then made public her findings on the 24th of May 2019 is in our client’s view an indication of the fact that little and/or no regard was had to the evidence and supplementary submissions,” Viljoen said. Who cares? Hands-up if you trust this public protector please! 👎👎👎 Do not think the Public Protector has the brains to do this on ger own. She is just a puppet doing what it is told
