Professor of politics at the University of North West Barry Hanyane says former Social Development Minister Bathabile Dlamini’s conduct is tantamount to state capture.

The inquiry headed by Judge Bernard Ngoepe investigated whether Dlamini should be held personally liable for the costs of the South African Social Security Agency debacle.Magistrate Khumalo handed down this judgment:“It can easily be classified as part of the state capture debacle. Just because it doesn’t include the Guptas, it doesn’t necessarily mean it doesn’t bear the hallmark of state capture.

In December last year, Dlamini’s application for acquittal in her perjury case was dismissed. The State is calling for direct imprisonment for the former Minister despite the Defence’s argument for a fine. It says the impact of Dlamini’s conviction should reverberate to Parliament and the Union Buildings, sending a strong message to public officials about accountability.
