DAYS OF ZONDO: State Capture: The prosecutors were the willing executioners too

and Shadrack Sibiya, whose fate would land up in the hands of a small clique of prosecutors whom he described as “enablers,” of State Capture.

That the cases against him, Dramat, McBride and others all were driven by this “regime” of prosecutors, suggested that they were essentially designated through political manipulation to disrupt investigations into corrupt politicians and their associates by targeting those seized with the various cases instead.

Booysen said in some of these cases, the prosecutors allegedly contrived reasons not to prosecute in the face of clear and prima facie evidence while actively pushing cases against him and others where no evidence existed. Mdluli, he said, had earlier tried to bail out Jiba in her own Labour Court case following her suspension for her role in the arrest of prosecutor Gerrie Nel a few years ago.

Noko, he said, did both — as well as dropping the case against Panday — in record time following her appointment. Pretorius, Booysen said, had had a hand in the NPA bid to prosecute Cabinet minister Pravin Gordhan as well as in the “renditions” case involving Dramat and Sibiya.I believe that Pretorius has allowed himself to be deployed as a lightning conductor in these matters to deflect attention from those at the coalface of the malicious prosecutions,” Booysen said.
