A report by former judge of the constitutional court Yvonne Mokgoro recommends that two senior officials at the National Prosecuting Authority, Nomgcobo Jiba and Lawrence Mrwebi, be removed from their positions. Follow running analysis from our specialist reporters here.
“This section focuses in on of the Booysen matter and deals with the issue of racketeering authorisations. It is relevant to Jiba and not Mrwebi. The purpose of this evidence is not to evaluate or determine the guilt or innocence of Booysen in relation to the criminal charges he is currently facing, so no conclusions are drawn on that aspect.
“The prosecuting authority is no exception to these constitutional imperatives. Jiba, in her capacity as the Acting NDPP at the time, was required to perform her duties and functions assiduously and forthright – anything short of that standard would reflect an incapacity and / or unwillingness to carry out the duties of office as efficiently as required by section 22 of the NPA Act.” This is a searing indictment of Jiba's conduct from Mokgoro.
