He said he was abruptly fired from his job after he indicated he was going to lay charges.
Umkhonto we Sizwe Military Veterans Association outcast Carl Niehaus’ future is looking dim after he was booted from the party last week. However, Niehaus said it was not over for him. “I will not take this lying down,” he said. “One doesn’t decide this lightly.” He may have cemented his position on Wednesday after he laid a criminal complaint of fraud, theft and corruption against the party and its top six executives.
Niehaus said he had on record all the times he raised the issues with the ANC officials and senior management.“When going through a process like that, it eventually becomes evident that no response and action is being taken. “The risk he runs through doing what he does is extremely low because he has nothing to lose,” he said.“He was supposed to have a certain position at Luthuli House but when [suspended secretary-general] Ace Magashule left, he just as well could not have returned for work because there is no work left for him,” Croucamp said.
Last week the Democratic Alliance laid a charge with the South African Police Service against the ANC over the party’s alleged failure to pay Unemployment Insurance Fund contributions to the state.
