“A t p r e s e n t , I a m s u s p e n d e d f r o m t h e C i t y”

Mr M N Isi has breached the provisions of a confidentiality clause by inserting Sergeant Nkosi in operational matters of the City of Tshwane.

“I have reason to believe that you have breached the provisions of that clause when you inserted Sergeant Nkosi in operational matters of the City of Tshwane.”

As a matter of common law, an employee has an obligation to keep employer's affairs confidential and only disclose as required by their role.

“... as a matter of common law , an employee , and that includes you , has an obligation to keep the affairs , information of the employer confidential and to disclose only insofar as it is required by their role ...”

Mr M N Isi conceded Sergeant Nkosi was involved but stated no completely sensitive or confidential information was shared in the payment process relating to the termination letter which had already been sent to the service provider.

“I did concede that Sergeant Nkosi involved himself . ... there was nothing completely sensitive or confidential within the payment process ... In terms of this termination letter , it had already gone out to the service provider”

Mr M N Isi denied sharing invoices, payment dates or requisitions with Sergeant Nkosi and said the only document shared was the termination letter, which had no financial details benefiting Ngaphesheya.

“I did not share an invoice . I did not share a payment date . I did not share a requisition with Sergeant Nkosi , Commissioner .”

Lieutenant Dhlamini shared an invoice with Sergeant Nkosi, but Mr M N Isi did not allow it and said he would explain the reasons for the sharing.

“Lieutenant Dhlamini to share that invoice with Sergeant Nkosi ... I did not allow him . He will explain why he shared it ... I did not allow that .”

Mr M N Isi admitted he forgot or did not save Deputy Chief Dhlamini's contact details, so he asked Sergeant Nkosi again for them.

“I had clearly forgotten that I had his details , or I did not save them , hence , I asked for the details again on the next page ...”

Mr M N Isi probably used Sergeant Nkosi as a go-between for communications to Deputy Chief Dhlamini.

“Was it possibly because you are quite happy to use Sergeant Nkosi as your go-between in relation to Deputy Chief Dhlamini ?”
