Senior research specialist at the HSRC, Prof. Joleen Steyn Kotze says the release of the fifth and final instalment of the State Capture Report will be a litmus test for political elites’ maturity and commitment to the country’s democratic ideals.

Kotze says political leaders must exercise maturity as the process unfolds. “You know, I think if we look at the work of the Zondo commission and the very critical questions the state capture team was tasked to investigate. I think it is a good strategy to practice due diligence and it can take a little bit longer to make sure you have crossed all the eyes etc. Because we are talking about the high ranking political elite who are implicated in state capture.

“We can certainly expect that the report will cover the role of parliament in state capture. How and why parliament failed to react to evidence of state capture at the time. And in fact a significant part of the hearing focus on these failures.

Alleged masterminds behind the state’s capture for their own benefit, Atul and Rajesh Gupta have since been arrested in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
