The legal showdown between suspended public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane and President Cyril Ramaphosa is set to continue.
Ramaphosa suspended Mkhwebane with immediate effect on June 9 pending the outcome of parliament's impeachment process against her. Hearings are due to start on July 11.
On Friday, Mkhwebane filed a supplementary founding affidavit at the high court saying she learnt of her suspension through the media. “I later received a copy of the suspension letter, which had apparently been sent to my professional assistant at 3.46pm and without even extending the humane courtesy of a telephone call to me by the president or his legal representatives, in the spirit of ubuntu.”
