Johannesburg - Former SA Revenue Service commissioner Tom Moyane has argued that he needs to be allowed to cross-examine Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan at the Zondo commission because the minister is corrupt and was involved in a “rogue unit”.
Mpofu said the only way Moyane would be able to defend himself is if he is allowed to cross-examine Gordhan and also provide his own version of events. Mpofu said Gordhan had been hostile to Moyane and was racist toward him. He also argued that the allegations of a rogue unit at Sars need to be heard by the Zondo commission.
Mpofu said contrary to what Gordhan would want the commission to believe, that he was against state capture, he, in fact, was a supporter of former president Jacob Zuma. "What we are saying is that Mr Gordhan in the things that he implicates Mr Moyane in, most of them, it amounts to criminal activity. And if that is the case the only way that Mr Moyane can defend his integrity is through cross-examination,” he argued. Le Roux said Moyane’s arguments to cross-examine were weak and that it was clear that Moyane was trying to reignite his claims of a rogue unit which were already dealt with by the Nugent commission.
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.

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!
