Judge Nana Makhubele is accused of abetting state capture while she was chair of PRASA.
At the 11th hour Thabani Masuku, an advocate, has been brought in to represent suspended Pretoria High Court Judge Nana Makhubele at a Judicial Services Commission tribunal probing allegations against her of gross misconduct, including abetting state capture at PRASA.
Since then she has been assisted by Mtshepo Mobeng from the State Attorney’s office, although Makhubele has repeatedly during her evidence and cross examination said that she had not properly consulted Mobeng and considered herself to be “unrepresented”. Nevertheless Mobeng continues to sit next to Makhubele, and on Monday she addressed the tribunal.
The tribunal refused. Tribunal president Judge Achmat Jappie questioned why, if the witness was present and available to testify immediately, she could not be called. Makhubele then asked for a day to collate documentation to submit to the tribunal. Judge Jappie said if she wished to bring anything to the tribunal’s attention, she could do so in her written closing arguments, with documentation attached.
Judge Jappie previously stated that he wanted to report to the Judicial Service Commission with the tribunal’s findings by April.
