Advocate Michelle Le Roux, arguing for public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan against Moyane's application for leave to cross-examine the minister, said the former commissioner failed to set a foundation identifying aspects in Gordhan's evidence that he disagrees with and grounds for that.
''Is it necessary...and does it progress the commission's work if it digresses into the issues listed in Mr Moyane's application? We would submit it does not. He wants to resuscitate the so called rogue unit narrative and traverse his removal as commissioner of Sars. The language of his founding affidavit is quite extreme if not hysterical...he talks about Mr Gordhan having a vendetta [against him] and that it is the minister's life's work to remove him.
Last month, Moyane suffered another blow in his quest to be reinstated when the Constitutional Court denied him leave to appeal a court ruling dismissing an earlier challenge to his dismissal. Commission chairperson Deputy Chief Justice Zondo disagreed with Le Roux's suggestion that Moyane is asking the commission to reverse the Nugent probe.

Mpofu accuses Gordhan of ‘treason’, ‘racism’ on behalf of MoyaneThe minister's lawyer, advocate Michelle le Roux, accused the former Sars boss of attempting to discredit her client. I used to admire advocate Mpofu, but with him defending Moyane is mind boggling It's sad that young people don't understand that the unit was set up to tackle sophisticated tax evasion by the elite. Pravin's testimony is a waste of time and money. SARS, Pravin and Mzansi will win it hands down. SARS will not be designed to fit a narrow mindset like that of Mpofu or Tom Moyane, if it needs collect it should. At all cost. If it must set up units then let it be. No fear favour!
