Judgment reserved in SARS-Public Protector’s case

SARS is challenging the procedure that Mkhwebane followed in obtaining a subpoena allowing her access to the tax information of former President Jacob Zuma in 2018. that Zuma allegedly received an undeclared R1 million from a security company during the first four months of his presidency.

Mkhwebane’s lawyer Dali Mpofu says SARS is hiding behind the secrecy clause, arguing that Mkhwebane should be allowed to access information that will assist her in the probe to fight corruption. Mpofu went on to say if such information could be made available to other institutions, it shouldn’t be a problem for the Public Protector to access it too.

SARS lawyer Jeremy Gauntlet has questioned the procedure Mkhwebane followed in obtaining the controversial subpoena. Gauntlet has argued that Mkhwebane’s actions are misguided.
