President Cyril Ramaphosa has to make a call quickly as their six-month suspensions are about to lapse
Former senior state prosecutor Glynnis Breytenbach has called for the prosecution of advocates Nomgcobo Jiba and Lawrence Mrwebi saying President Cyril Ramaphosa has no option but to fire both of them.
Reacting to the findings of the Mokgoro inquiry into their fitness to hold office in the National Prosecuting Authority , Breytenbach said Thursday was a “great day” for the authority and SA’s criminal justice system. Jiba is the suspended deputy national director of public prosecutions, while Mrwebi, who is also suspended, heads the specialised commercial crimes unit.
Mokgoro handed her report, which was very scathing of both Mrwebi and Jiba’s conduct, to Ramaphosa last week. The report recommends that the two be removed from office. Breytenbach, who is now a DA MP, was hounded out of the NPA after Jiba took over as its deputy national director. She was one of the key witness at the inquiry and chronicled how the charges against Mdluli were dropped by Mrwebi despite her vehement opposition.
