The Special Investigating Unit (SIU) has denied that it did not give the son of health minister Zweli Mkhize, Dedani, a chance to clear his name in the controversial Digital Vibes saga.
“I am concerned and disappointed in the manner in which the SIU has dealt with me following its investigations in the Digital Vibes and department of health contract saga. To say that its dealings have been nothing short of unprofessional and biased would be an understatement.
Dedani released the statement after TimesLIVE reported that the information was contained in court papers the SIU filed at the Special Tribunal on Thursday. These amounts allegedly amounted to undue gratification as there was no evidence they did work for Digital Vibes. Kganyago said the SIU noted Dedani’s media statement in which he “puts the integrity and the credibility of the SIU into question, and claims that the unit made its findings based on newspaper articles. He further claims that he was never afforded an opportunity to clear his name nor notified about the papers filed at the Special Tribunal.”“The SIU would like to place it on record that Mr Mkhize made written submissions, which were thoroughly considered as part of the investigation.
