ICYMI: Dr Zweli Mkhize has hit back at the Special Investigating Unit and lambasted his detractors for drawing predetermined conclusions about his alleged involvement in the Digital Vibes tender scandal. DigitalVibes Covid19InSA SIU tenders

Special Investigations report makes damning findings on Zweli Mkhize, Anban Pillay for Digital Vibes contract

“The SIU failed to address my version and evidence I provided to it – in most instances, such evidence was entirely ignored where it deviated from the SIU’s predetermined conclusions. While, for instance, I provided the SIU with a bundle of documents plus a detailed witness statement in advance of my questioning, I was given no notice of even the gist of fundamental matters on which I was questioned. Documents in the possession of the SIU were simply withheld so that I could be ambushed.

In his affidavit, Mkhize dug into some of the SIU’s key findings and alleged that the unit, in its referral to President Cyril Ramaphosa, was markedly different from those put to him during its interrogation. “The allegations are indeed demonstrably false, as other evidence corroborates, and appear to have been driven by the previous difficult relationship between myself and the former DG.”

“No doubt, as I have noted, when the SIU discloses the full record of decision, including the electronic record, this will confirm that the report was already transmitted in the late afternoon or early evening. It is, with respect, impossible for the SIU to have considered the submissions or evidence. Impossibility aside, demonstrably the SIU did not give it due regard, as some of its findings in the referral letter and report have no regard to that evidence.

“The self-inflicted wounds of the political factions are now on display for all to see. The promise of renewal under the Ramaphosa administration has fallen on its sword as justice is applied unevenly and in a way that crucifies opponents and shields those close to the president. It is a crying shame, a dangerous precedent, and a signal of the state of decay.”

Mkhize must fight back just like how koko is doing. Angadlala imgodoyi

He is wounded shame, trying to save his image, he won't win this.

Not saying what but most of the times we like to act innocent until to the last minute

I think Mr. Mkhize had a fallout with Ramaphosa earlier on behind closed doors and decided to hit back by stealing knowingly he won't get arrested...its a long discussion
