On Friday, Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane released a report finding Gordhan of wrongfully signing off former SARS official Ivan Pillay's early retirement, during his tenure at the revenue authority.Mkhwebane finds Gordhan wrongly approved Pillay’s retirement
"It's in the interest of certain political parties in this country that he be neutralized, that he be not allowed to occupy political power, that he not hold out this threat of accountability," Fritz said. Fritz says we saw this in an attempt by the National Prosecuting Authority with"the help of the Hawks" to charge Gordhan.In 2016, the NPA had to drop the same charges against Gordhan resulting in the NPA coming under fire from civil society and certain sectors of government for charging the then finance minister just days before the presentation of the mid-term budget.
"That was the most infamous episodes in the NPA's history where they had to climb down ultimately because there was not a shred of evidence to charge him of criminal wrongdoing," said Fritz. "We now have this attempt to reheat this long coldish again, seemingly to impugn Minister Gordhan. Whether the Public Protector does that wittingly or it's just a matter of coincidence... certainly the impugning of Minister Gordhan is in the interest of certain powerful political parties's interest in this country," she said.
SA is under attack from WMC and it's stooges
They capture the justice system, now they protect corrupt PG think we stupid
They are drunk
Ba Bolela Ditsie Badimo,Pravin Onagana gore yena Ke Kgorotonyana Yamo SA,rekase modumelele a itira Kommangkanna resa Phela!
These freedom under law didn't say malusi gigaba, fikile mbalula, Jacob Zuma, Brian shibvambu were under attack when there were findings against them by PP? Mara Y vele do they defend only if it's non black that is found to have acted unlawful?
Whose interests are these people serving?
This Man must try planet fitness nor virgin active I dont think he stil managing Dubai
Freedom Under Law, CASAC, OUTA and other bullshit civil society formations are just WMC proxies. They must set up their own country away from South Africa and make Gordhan president there.
U r attacking our PP. Pravin is a thief we don't want him in cabinet finish
Rule of law is under attack here!!! Corruption is under attack,deal with it you fake,selective foundation!!!
No you are wrong PublicProtector is under your attack don't try to confuse us we are not fools🤔
One thing I know anything white can not be on the side of something that is not white, not unless that thing not white does protect interest of a thing that is white.
Freedom Under Law is Prime minister Pravin above the the law
So was Duduzane. So is Ace. So is Pres Zuma. Nomvula. Gwede. Why should this one be special, hah!!
Who cares
We as public servants and voters are under attack from petrol increase and low salaries protect not him.anyway he is old
Freedom Under Law attacks a chapter 9 institution and want us to take them serious. Tsek Maan...
Who is freedom under law ?
They are obvious benefactors.
I would advise other law abiding citizens to offer protection to our PP.She is shaking the establishment,she must be protected physically,legally and emotionally.I now fear for her life
Actually eNCA says Pravin is under attack. But reality is that he’s not under attack. He just needs to face the consequences of his corrupt deeds, just like anybody else!
Nonsense! Your superstar is not above the law. It is the law that is being administered here.
😂😂😂Why though? He violated the constitution, and as we have seen in the past, that tends to have consequences. It's really that simple.
That lawyer smoke dung
🤣 🤣 This guy is not beyong reproach stop protecting him he must answer for himself
BOO HOO CRY US A RIVER 🙄
PP hit the dog until the owner comes out u, repeat the same with the owner thanx our lovely PP we love u God bless u.
😂😂😂
Freedom Under Law is promoting Lawlessness and Constitutional Delequency sies
🤣🤣🤣
Racist red hats involved
I thought these interests groups represent the people now they represent ANC politicians..
Where were they when Zuma was under attack? Phuk them, you and your handlers
Mdidi lo Pravin
They r smoking weeds which attack
Why they did not say the same when it was Gigabytes? Hmmm the prime minister is the protector of their interests that's why she is now evil.
This man Paraffin is poisonous
Freedom under law 💩 where they Pravin running rogue unit SARS? Let PP do her job
Chapter 9 is attack by individuals in the name of freedom under law
No. The Public Protector is under attack.
freedom under law is only there to protect those that advance WCM.
I am coming for him🤔
FUL is our constitutional court akere?
Let's correct the headline: Freedom Above Law says Gordhan 'under attack' Now it makes sense, let's give them a round of applause 👏👏👏
Can we respect the office of the p.p. will discuss issues later
Shem
Thid FUL is talking rubbish from the bottom of their hearts
Malema & Co are running scared
The PP can sit down till the highest court in the land put aside her appeal, giving her a 💯 %, unfit for office guarantee, so she can go, she has done nothing fabulous since she’s in office, she is selective and don’t go after the looters
Wow! So does that mean the office of the PP can be undermined? Did you not see that judgement which said the PP recommendations are binding? Please respect the citizens of this country
Relentlessly under attack,their resilience coupled with anger is baffling the mind. Matter investigated so many times and dropped,charges dropped no case.......but no!
Cyril must appoint Ghordan to disappoint state captures, as for EFF tough luck guys on your enemy the country needs him more than you.
sapolnews They failed before and they will fail again. The days for the looters and thieves are over.
Is it freedom under law only for Pravin or for civil society.
If innocent, no worries, if guilty, why not in jail yet?
What's so special about this man?
What attack! Because the PP findings clearly stated that he acted unlawful to authorize the early retirement of Pillay
They talking rubbish, let the law take its course. no holy cow here
Nobody asked him to hire his friend with grade 10 to a high office and raise his salary from 2mil to 4mil.Give him 4mil early retirement and re-hire him again. Now he is under attack from who.Khanisixoleleni please while we still waiting for a new clean cabinet
Yep, and it's Gordhan's own comrades in the ANC who are responsible for this: They are the ones who appointed Mkhwebane, and are the ones who are continuing to protect her & prevent her from being removed by Parliament!
Let him go tell the courts that. We are living in a constitutional country. We have the courts to protect us.
Phezu kwakhe Sis Busi noma ilandi lingawa sizolixosha😂
Phezu kwakhe lomgulukudu Sisi Busi he thinks he is untouchable
Under attack from who? This fake messiah must face music just like everyone else.
Ooh please
Nonsense under attack from who, this freedom under law are been racist. You are racist. you went after certain black Africans ministers under Zuma call them all kind of names, don't treat us as if we are stupid. He should abide by the PP ruling that is all
White controlled organisations will always protect people like Pravin and fail to protect ordinary South Africans... I am saying there's no such Pravin must face the music and fokof!
Under attack from who?
You mean the land thieve!
Under attack how... u can't approve early retirement for someone then hire them again... nonsense makonya
This Gordham issue is a catalyst to a long drawn feud that has been brewing. One stupid move by anyone particularly the president, can set the country on fire.
Yebo, all corrupt politicians must b attacked. We, the public led by our P/P we will attack all thieves
PP was relentlessly on PG's case
They're saying nonsense, we're waiting for the cabinet announcement.
Pravin must fusek that all
Only Zuma is under attack
Gordan is their master not ours they can go kiss him where the sun dont shine..
Ahh fuck No the man is not under any attack .he must take the matter to court .n clear his name .let's stop the issue of race also.if he is clean he has nothing to worry about.
Pravin is special I get a sense that some of you think he is a god of some sort
Lol joke. They are so desperate they cannot even hide it anymore.
I wonder y?The Courts r de final abitors.
According to me PP is ‘under attack’
Who is not? Anyone who does not want to be under attack must leave public office. No special treatment.
That 'freedom under law' must f*ck off and go to hell, no one is above law. Let Pravin prove his innocence if he is not guilty. We don't buy faces here
That treasonous thief is under no attack. You the media are desperately trying to save this sellout cos he is cosy with your owners WMC. How many companies is Pravin part of and why?
what's so special about Pravin
Under attack for what?
Indeed he is....the EFF orchestrate this stratcom action.
Nonsense
Who’s that freeedom under law this fucken Indian must face the music now it’s abt tym
What about zuma?
As much as will are the first line of defense for our comrades, it doesn’t mean we must do it with disregard to the facts and merits of the cases they are facing or being accused of. Objectivity must always prevail
That’s well known!
Wht r you saying as a news report...
😂 😂
Freedom under law must fuckoff
If you are under attack, defend yourself. Finish and klaar ... We are sick and tired of your double standards! What's special about Pravin?
He's 'Under Attack' but Zuma and others they are not under attack because corruption is only done by Black People.
Where was Freedom Under Law when Gigaba and Mbalula were under attack?
From who
Madness, Pravin is not a saint
They must just drink water n mind their own business
😂🤣😂 Mickey mouse arrangements....
For doing her job?..
Is freedom under law a court of law
Nonsense. Pravin must be held accountable. He gave his friend taxpayers money for early retirement & hired same guy back.
Some said the same thing about Zuma but only to find out that Thuli Madonsela was actually right So take a freedom under law pill and chill
Gordhan is like any other citizen in this country. He must must respect our institutions. South Africa is not an animal farm.
Mphephethwa04 Turns out this man was right all along PravinGordhan
Zuma made hai biggest mistake removing Gordhan- he is MUCH more effective outside of official structures. Warned!
What is this freedom under law ...they aren’t under the law themselves i see 🤔
Freedom under law is attacking the PP for doing her job
Under attack from AdvBMkhwebane no, he must subject himself to PublicProtector like any other law abiding citizen, he is not above the law.
Wow 😂😂 really.
