The Standing Committee on Public Accounts agreed that brigadier Jap Burger would be given seven working days to respond to its latest request - to testify about maladministration and corruption claims made by De Ruyter shortly before his departure.
CAPE TOWN - A retired police officer to whom former Eskom CEO André Marinus de Ruyter allegedly reported intelligence information could be summoned to appear in Parliament if he turns down a third invitation to appear voluntarily before it.
Burger has twice been a no-show in Parliament, questioning the committee’s mandate and citing a potential breach of confidential national security matters.
Burger also wrote to National Assembly Speaker Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula questioning the committee’s mandate to interrogate him on matters of national security.
