An alleged ally of embattled deputy national director of public prosecutions Nomgcobo Jiba was caught clandestinely communicating with Durban business tycoon Thoshan Panday, the Zondo commission heard on Wednesday.
” the cost of mattresses, blankets and accommodation procured by SAPS, Booysen said.
In a 2013 affidavit, NPA security official Terence Joubert tells of how Nxasana was investigated, allegedly prompted by Jiba and aimed at bringing about his removal from office. Nxasana laid criminal charges of perjury against Jiba, flowing from statements she made under oath in the course of attempting to prosecute Booysen for racketeering.
“One of them provided a voice recording in which Colonel Mhlongo is heard to confirm that he was acting on the authority of deputy NDPP Nomgcobo Jiba to collect information about me to discredit me.”Jiba was cross-examined on her authorisation of the racketeering prosecution of Booysen in 2012 before the Mokgoro inquiry into whether she is fit for her post at the NPA. It is expected that Booysen’s Zondo commission testimony will also deal with the racketeering charges.
