Parliament’s Impeachment Committee, which is chaired by Makashule Gana, has voted to oppose legal challenges by the EFF and ALPA over its decision to withdraw Advocate Thandazani Madonsela’s nomination as evidence leader.
Parliament's Section 89 Impeachment Committee is facing yet another court challenge - this time over the withdrawal of its nomination of Advocate Thandazani Griffiths Madonsela SC as its evidence leader.
President Cyril Ramaphosa previously took the committee to court, securing an interim interdict preventing it from hearing evidence until his review application in respect of the Section 89 panel report into the Phala Phala matter is decided.
The review case was argued last week in the Western Cape High Court, and judgment was reserved.
Now the committee is going to court to oppose an application by the EFF, as well as an application by the African Legal Professionals Association (ALPA) to rescind its decision to rescind Madonsela's nomination as its evidence leader.
