State capture inquiry begins

The Public Protector has probably already put in her request to access all information, just so she can report back to Nkandla. I can imagine her and Zuma looking at mounds of paper, wishing they could read.
 
VAN ROOYEN BLAMES MADONSELA & WHITE-OWNED MEDIA FOR STATE CAPTURE ALLEGATIONS

“Just because someone is coming from a company where there are not even substantiated allegations of corruption, I don’t think it was going to be important for me to deny the person the opportunity and for me to use that as my determining criteria,” he said.

But Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo had a difficult time understanding this.

:rolleyes:
 


The former Cabinet minister, during his testimony on Tuesday at the state capture inquiry, accused the former Public Protector of making findings against him without giving him an opportunity to answer.

Well, he was given the opportunity now and the answer isn't surprising me at all.

“All this happened because of this expeditiously compiled report by the former Public Protector. It is interesting chairperson, but not surprising, to note that at the centre of this court of public opinion is a political narrative that is driven by a bias white-owned media controlled by white capital,” he said.

Clearly, he didn't receive any clandestine-orientated training, he is raising his arm to be suspect.

weekend special is not really bright - this would be expected argument from him.
 
Insight into the evidence rules change, and endemic corruption:
:thumbsup: This is really good although it must be really tiring sitting at the high office to have to deal with such phenomenal corruption all around. I get tired just by thinking about it and I am at my own home.
This has now changed. First, the investigators and evidence leaders of the commission are now permitted to share all the information they have gathered – including all documents – with the Hawks and the Investigative Directorate of the NPA. Where the commission has obtained the relevant bank statements, cellphone records, emails, and official documents implicating politicians, their hangers-on and their benefactors in corruption, the law enforcement investigators will now have access to this making their task much easier.
 
Its almost as funny as mybroadband thats captured by the Chinese companies while stuffing their mattrresses with cash.

It takes one of moral standing to stand up to someone else and point the finger. You cant while coining money from Chinese targeted ads.
 
No arrests.

Three witnesses have told of high-ranking officials visiting the Gupta home in Saxonwold, Johannesburg – and leaving with bags of cash.


Malusi Gigaba, Siyabonga Gama, Garry Pita, Brian Molefe and Anoj Singh all, at various times, came out of the Gupta family’s Saxonwold residence carrying bags of cash, three witnesses testified at the Zondo Commission of Inquiry into Allegations of State Capture on Thursday.


The witnesses say their lives are in danger, with one being SMSed that he should stop giving evidence or “your family won’t find a piece of you”.


They testified in camera with their names redacted from any affidavits given. They were also given extensive protection while they were testifying, said the chairperson of the commission, Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo.
 
Some juicy details beginning to emerge. Too bad these lot probably think nothing can be proven.
A lot can be proven, the question is whether they will be prosecuted within due diligence.

Prosecuting is what we are seemingly unable to do or succeed at.

It'll be on the evidence of single witnesses unless they can track down the shops were they spent the loot and find people willing to testify. It's surprising and infuriating that they sold the country so cheaply. Not even Zuma seems to have got all that much. Suppose a few 100 is too much for their sort.
