corruption charge

Concerns were raised about the Mokwele matter involving lack of evidence and unsustainable corruption charges.

“My concerns regarding the Mokwele matter ... I was not satisfied that the corruption charge was sustainable on the available evidence and current formulation of the charge sheet and I said so in writing at the time”

The corruption charge against the Generals and Ms Mokwele is defective and liable to be challenged as it does not comply with PRECCA and the Criminal Procedure Act.

“I concluded that the corruption charge, as it stood, was defective and did not comply with the definitional elements of PRECCA and was liable to be challenged in terms of section 85 of the Criminal Procedure Act.”
