Patricia De Lille hails court move to overturn Seriti Commission report | IOL News

Cape Town - GOOD party leader Patricia de Lille has welcomed Wednesday's court ruling overturning the findings of the Seriti commission of inquiry which probed the controversial arms deal.

"Today’s [Wednesday's] High Court judgement overturning the Seriti Commission’s whitewashing of arms deal corruption is important because it demonstrates that although the wheels of justice have been turning almost imperceptibly slowly, they are not entirely broken. The rule of law prevails," she said.

De Lille said had their been action against those who were implicated in corruption in the arms deal, it would have prevented the looting of state coffers in later years. Judge President Dustan Mlambo had ruled that the manner in which the commission approached witnesses at the commission represented as a “complete failure”.
