Dr Richard Lebethe, who says he was asked by then MEC for Gauteng health Qedani Mahlangi to visit some of the non-governmental-organisations before 1,700 patients were moved, insisted that he was not fully involved, but does not ultimately see himself as an innocent bystander.This was revealed at the Life Esidimeni inquest which aims to find if there can be any criminal liability for the deaths.
Pooe asked if he took the responsibility to catch up on what he missed at meetings he did not attend or left early. “At Precious Angels there was specialists from mental health who were part of the team, I was called from somewhere else when the visit was almost finished,” said Lebethe.
