Johannesburg - Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s plan to block attempts to remove her by Parliament was dealt a huge blow on Monday after the Constitutional Court found that she had lied under oath and acted in bad faith in the Absa/Bankorp report saga. The apex court dismissed Mkhwebane’s appeal against a personal cost order that the North Gauteng High Court slapped her with last year.
On Monday, the court found that Mkhwebane had misrepresented information to the court and withheld some of the documentation she relied on while conducting her investigation. The court also found that Mkhwebane’s conduct, including that of advancing “a number of falsehoods”, was not in accordance with the standard of conduct expected from pubic officials.
DA chief whip John Steenhuisen said the official opposition would write to Modise and call for the inquiry into Mkhwebane to be expedited.
