The commission said Fraser is yet to provide the information he claimed to have pertaining to “presidents and judges”.
“On 14 April 2021 Mr Fraser’s application to the commission for an order compelling the minister of state security and the state security agency to give him various documents that he said he needed for his submission before the commission was to be heard,” the statement reads.
“There is a transcript of the proceedings of the 14th April 2021 which reflects that the head of the commission’s legal team, Adv Pretorius SC, called upon Mr Fraser to co-operate with the commission’s investigators even at that late stage to conduct an investigation in respect of the information he was saying he had which he said would expose presidents and judges but to date Mr Fraser has not co-operated with the commission’s investigators.
“By agreement between the parties the chairperson postponed that application to enable Mr Fraser and the state security agency to have discussions and try to agree on documents that the SSA could release to Mr Fraser. The understanding was that, if Mr Fraser was not given the documents at all or was given some but not others and he still felt aggrieved after such discussions, he would revert to the commission so that his application could be heard and decided by the chairperson.
“In conclusion, it is only Mr Fraser who can explain why he has never lodged an application for leave to give evidence before the commission if he wants to testify before the commission, particularly because he did see it fit to lodge two other applications including one for leave to cross-examine certain witnesses which is provided for in the same rule that provides for an application for leave to testify and the one for an order compelling the SSA to give him certain documents.
