Johannesburg MayorMashaba says he’s prepared to have all corruption cases in the city prosecuted privately, if the National Prosecuting Authority declines to take action.
Mashaba says he has provided the Hawks and the NPA with “overwhelming” evidence of rampant corruption in the city, yet no one is being prosecuted. On Thursday, he tweeted that the latest report by the City of Joburg’s Group Forensic and Investigation Services revealed that graft cases amounting to R33 billion were still under investigation.
The Mayor has now written to Hawks and NPA heads, General Godfrey Lebeya and advocate Shamila Bathoi, respectively, asking why no action is being taken despite damning findings from multiple investigations. “The letter I wrote to advocate Bathoi is to say please if they feel they don’t have a case against these people, please then nullify these cases. Because one thing for sure as the City of Johannesburg we would like to go for private prosecution. But we are prevented from going for private prosecution because the Constitution of the country says for you to be allowed to go for private prosecution is when the NPA says they don’t have a case.
Mxm le boy kazille itsho ngowayo mlomo ukuba Kuba NPA isaphanda kuzotshutshiswa njani lungagqitywa uphando
Absolutely correct Mayor, thieves are roaming the streets while NPA drags its feet, if they can't prosecute, let them say so because Gerrie 'The Pitbull' Nel is ready to take these cases and run with them, NPA is notorious for delaying & bungling cases involving ANC cadres😕
