Former director of minerals and energy Dr Thibedi Ramontja is due to testify at the state capture inquiry on Thursday.
In a legal to-and-fro between Moyane and Gordhan at the inquiry on Wednesday, Gordhan's lawyer, Michelle le Roux, argued that issues canvassed in Moyane's application to cross-examine her client had already been dealt with by retired judge Robert Nugent in his investigation into tax and governance issues at the revenue collector.
Moyane's lawyer, Dali Mpofu, meanwhile, spoke of Gordhan's role in establishing the controversial high-risk investigations unit, dubbed the"rogue unit", which Nugent found to be a legal body. Mpofu also alleged that Gordhan was racist towards Moyane and referred to a phone call in which Gordhan allegedly told Moyane to"grow up". Mpofu argued that this amounted to racism, because it implied that Moyane was a"boy".
