Counsel for Manuel, Carol Steinberg, told the court that if the statement by the EFF remained unchallenged, Manuel would suffer continued damage to his reputation.

Image:The defamation case brought by former finance minister Trevor Manuel against the EFF, its leader Julius Malema and spokesperson Mbuyiseni Ndlozi got under way in the South Gauteng High Court on Tuesday.

Manuel had, however, recused himself when Kieswetter was interviewed because Kieswetter was Sars deputy commissioner at the time that Manuel was the country's finance minister.Image:Steinberg said the statement against Manuel was prejudicial to the many organisations with which he was associated. She said while the statement by the EFF remained in the public domain, the public was being told that the new Sars commissioner was appointed not because he was the best candidate, but because he was a relative of Manuel, a close companion whose appointment was made in secret.
