Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane maintains she will not conduct her investigation into Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan in the glare of the public to avoid jeopardising it.
JOHANNESBURG - Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane says her current investigation into Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan is only to investigate claims that he established the so-called South African Revenue Service “rogue unit” in violation of the country’s intelligence prescripts.
She has clarified that the investigation relates to allegations of improper conduct and a violation of the executive ethics code along with irregular and unlawful activities by the minister. The Public Protector says she is concerned that her subpoena was leaked with no regard for the investigating staff who are now compromised, making their jobs difficult.
