Deputy chief justice Raymond Zondo has denied former Sars boss Tom Moyane leave to cross-examine public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan at the commission of inquiry into state capture.

It was also found that Moyane's affidavit does not adequately respond to the relevant parts of Gordhan's testimony.

"[The rule] requires a statement responding to the witness statement in so far as it implicates him or her … [Moyane's] statement does not at all respond to certain important parts of [Gordhan's] statement which implicates him or does not respond adequately to some parts of [Gordhan's] statement or evidence … Furthermore, I have also stated that rule 3.

"Neither in his founding affidavit or in his supplementary affidavit did [Moyane] deal with the issue on why granting him leave to appeal is necessary and in the best interests of the work of the commission," Zondo added. In March, Moyane's lawyer Dali Mpofu, in arguing for leave to cross-examine Gordhan, alleged that the minister was racist towards Moyane and referred to a phone call in which Gordhan allegedly told Moyane to"grow up". Mpofu argued that this amounts to racism, because it implies that Moyane is a"boy". He claimed Gordhan's affidavit was"more significant for what it omits than what it says".

Moyane denied an opportunity to grill GordhanErstwhile Sars commissioner Tom Moyane has been denied leave to cross-examine Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan before the Zondo commission of inquiry into state capture. Good! Moyane and Mpofu merely wanted to use the Commission as a political platform. He must apply to give evidence under oath if he insists that pravin is lying. If others were allowed to cross examined then why not, there’s nothing special about Gordhan, Justice should be for all regardless of post or political affiliations
