Party Chief Whip, Natasha Mazzone and her colleague, Cilliers Brink filed an affidavit at the Cape Town police station.She likened the ruling party to a criminal syndicate.In 2019, the DA asked the National Prosecution Authority boss, Adv Shamila Batohi, to investigate the ANC for this, as well as fraud and the looting of public money, which allegedly took place over the past two decades.

According to Mazzone, nothing has been done to date. But she says now, with the evidence procured by the Zondo Commission report, the charges and an investigation are justified. The DA is laying the charges against the organisation as a whole; its leaders, the NEC, as well as certain individuals. “Of course, Jacob Zuma being at the time the head of the organisation, because as we know all organisations, private companies or political parties are run by an individual. But the ANC as a whole knew state capture was happening. It’s actually mentioned in the Zondo Commission report itself that there were cadre deployment meetings,” says Mazzone.
