Public Protector report on ABSA bailout set aside

She won't suffer then, +/-R150k is nothing for someone like her.

Petty cash for her.
I am open to correction but remember reading recently that she could expect R42 million bonus at end of her term.

Unacceptable! So much money for doing what? Protecting a corrupt president?
 
Court rejects Public Protector's bid for leave to appeal costs order

Pretoria - In another legal blow to Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane, the Gauteng High Court Pretoria on Wednesday turned down an application by her for leave to appeal against last month’s judgment and subsequent order that she personally pay 15% of the costs of the application by the SA Reserve Bank.

A full bench (three judges) in February set aside Mkhewbane’s direction to the Special Investigating Unit (SIU) to reopen its investigation into the apartheid-era bailout granted to Bankorp that Absa should repay R1.25 billion to the Reserve Bank.

As part of its order, the court ruled that she had to pay 85% of the Reserve Bank’s legal costs in her official capacity and 15% in her personal capacity.

The court at the time in a scathing judgment, said: “In the matter before us it transpired that the Public Protector does not fully understand her constitutional duty to be impartial and to perform her functions without fear, favour or prejudice.”

Absa accuses Public Protector of lying to Parliament
Smart money says her response comes from this list:
- I was taken out of context
- I was commenting on information given to me and unaware of any errors aka "It wasn't me"
- This is a racist attack by WMC!
 

Busisiwe Mkhwebane still fighting R900‚000 legal bill


Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane is not giving up her fight to overturn the estimated R900‚000 legal bill she was ordered to pay after her disastrous court battle with the Reserve Bank.

The High Court in Pretoria ordered that Mkhwebane personally pay 15% of the Reserve Bank’s legal costs in its successful challenge to her report on the apartheid-era bailout given to Bankorp. Bankorp was later taken over by Absa.

Yep, ask for direct access to the Concourt. The only criminal organization in South Africa that will probably protect you along with your buddies.

Ready to bet? The ConCourt will definitely tell her to sod off.

Just quoting this for posterity so when the concourt delivers her the beat down we can all laugh at you
 
Is Busisiwe Mkhwebane the new public protector? If so, God help you all.
 
I grew up in a remote bush valley on the edge of the old Nyasaland and clearly remember my parents saying, on several occasions, that the only people that could be trusted were a doctor, a priest and a lawyer.
At least they got one out of three right. Maybe.
