The defamation case against convicted former Northern Cape ANC leader John Block is adjourned.

The case was brought by former Judge President, Frans Kgomo, against Block and his legal representatives.

During that case, Block’s legal representatives alleged that Judge Frans Kgomo and the trial judge at that time collaborated to find him guilty. During his testimony in court, Block says he heard the allegations that Judge Frans Kgomo and the trial Judge collaborated to put him behind bars. “It was raised with Judge Phatshoane; it was raised with the Judicial Services Commission. When they completed their processes I made peace with it, I accept that everyone made peace with it. It was after that like I said we never went public about it, we kept it to the relevant forums,” said Block.
