The EFF says Kieswetter was deputy commissioner at Sars at the time of the ‘illegal intelligence unit’, which inquiry chair Robert Nugent found to be legal
Hours before Edward Kieswetter was announced as the new SA Revenue Service commissioner, the EFF said it rejected his appointment and would explore legal options to invalidate his “unlawful” appointment.
During his tenure at Sars, Kieswetter established the Large Business Centre and High Net Worth Individual Unit. The party was also concerned that Kieswetter was deputy commissioner when public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan was commissioner. The EFF said it “will immediately write a legal letter to Mr [Cyril] Ramaphosa and Mr [Tito] Mboweni to demand the disclosure of all processes that were followed in the process of selecting a Sars commissioner”.
