🔒 Contradictory claims by deputy prosecutions head Nomgcobo Jiba have been highlighted in written submissions of the inquiry’s evidence leaders.
Nomgcobo Jiba said one thing to President Cyril Ramaphosa in August 2018 about the prosecution of former KwaZulu-Natal Hawks head Johan Booysen. She said something very different to the Mokgoro inquiry, according to documents referred to in the written submissions of the inquiry’s evidence leaders, filed on Thursday.
The inquiry — chaired by retired Constitutional Court justice Yvonne Mokgoro — was established to look into whether Jiba, the embattled national deputy director of public prosecutions, and suspended head of the specialised commercial crime unit Lawrence Mrwebi are fit for office, after the two were criticised in a number of court judgments.
One of these — relating to Jiba only — was a judgment in which the KwaZulu-Natal high court set aside her authorisation of racketeering charges against Booysen. During its public hearings, Booysen told the inquiry he believed the charges were politically motivated.
