This is according to Health MEC Dr Bandile Masuku, who visited the family at their Eersterust home on Thursday night. This comes after they said it had been a month with no word from authorities. The family accused provincial health officials of making empty promises.
Initially, the investigation was supposed to take 30 days, after the incident occurred in June. But head of the department, Professor Mkhululi Lukhele, pleaded for more time. Present at the meeting was a representative from the South African Human Rights Commission in Gauteng. Masuku will also engage MEC for Social Development in Gauteng Nandi Mayathula-Khoza to request her to intervene with regard to Marais’s South African Social Security Agency Service needs.
"We are committed to ensuring openness and transparency in our dealings. We are eager to work with all the stakeholders including Chapter 9 institutions,” said Masuku.
