Former SAA chairperson Dudu Myeni on Tuesday indicated she intends to plead guilty on charges including defeating the administration of justice.

Dudu Myeni will face the music for unmasking Mr X, who testified under protection at the Zondo commission into state capture.Former SAA board chairperson Dudu Myeni on Tuesday indicated she intends to plead guilty on charges including defeating the administration of justice.

She made a brief appearance in the Johannesburg magistrate's court where she faces charges of defeating and obstructing the proper administration of justice, with two alternative counts — one for contravention of the Commissions Act and another for contravention of the inquiry’s regulations. The charges relate to her testimony at the state capture inquiry in November 2020 when she unmasked the identity of a witness who had been granted anonymity by commission chair, then deputy chief justice Raymond Zondo. “We can confirm as the NPA that the accused is in negotiations with the state in terms of section 105 capital letter A of the Criminal Procedure Act in that she wishes to plead guilty and enter into a plea sentence and agreement with the state.

Myeni’s appearance comes after she failed to attend court previously and a warrant for her arrest was issued. Her legal team reported she was unwell at the time. At the time of the incident, Myeni repeatedly revealed the name of a whistle-blower known as “Mr X”, despite being warned against this.

Goodness!! At last bcoz she smells jail breezes. Her boldness is no more and her sweetheart tasted the jail bitterness.

This One Dudu Myeni Zuma, She Must Pay Back The Money And Face Bloody Harsh Sentence!

It will end with a fine

I hope the NPA does not accept a plea bargain and goes to trial.

She is not going to jail though

And the MYANC that put her there? What happens to them?

Sentence should not be less than 25 years in prison and all her assets sold ,We don't want Tony Yengeni situation where within 3 years she is out on parole .Phakama Zondo ixesha lifikile.

Jail time will be a befitting sentence for this one...

Surely not, not an ANC flunkie admitting guilt....somethings wrong.

Few months back I had no way of taking care of my kids , had no job or money also struggling through the pandemic,so I decided to try Bitcoin trading with the help of Allison_Grillo I was able to earn $50,000 now am financially stable. I thought she didn’t want to implicate herself.
