Robert McBride to spill the beans on 'silent coup' and 'political gangsterism'

"A few years ago, I came to the conclusion and expressed myself publicly but I had also engaged with other affected persons from other organisations. The statement I made is that it [the weakening of anti-corruption entities] is to cover up crimes committed before, crimes being committed in the present, and crimes expected to take place in the future."

After McBride was suspended in 2015, he, along with former Sars acting commissioner Ivan Pillay and former Hawks boss Anwa Dramat, released a joint statement highlighting various concerns they had. "A meeting was arranged with members who had suffered the same persecution in Sars, the [Hawks] and Ipid ... We expressed our concerns with what was taking place in the country.

"Myself, Dramat, and Pillay released a joint statement to that effect that there is a concerted effort to weaken anti-corruption bodies and there can be no reasonable explanation as to why you would want to weaken anti-corruption bodies, except a nefarious one," he said.
