The case against Ace Magashule: The suspended ANC secretary general’s assistant, who is not prepared to testify against him, may be extradited from the US
has refused to testify against him in the asbestos corruption case that prompted his suspension as secretary general of the ANC and subsequent political downfall.
She was now “a suspect soon to be an accused in this matter” he said, and would be added, likely as accused number 17, once back in South Africa. Magashule says a statement she gave to his lawyers supports his version of events, and that the prosecution lied about her turning state witness to bolster a baseless case that is a conspiracy to sideline him in the ruling party.
“No, my lord, with respect, it is more serious than that,” he said, and went on to accuse the prosecution of misrepresenting the facts at the time of Magashule’s bail hearing, when his client was warned that Cholota was a state witness and that he may not communicate with her directly or indirectly.
