Race row still raising concern

The race row in the judicial system still raises concerns. The Cape Bar Council has joined others in the legal fraternity by expressing concern about the lack of resolution in the recent race row. Ashton Schippers, Chairperson of the Cape Bar Council says the council had referred the racism allegations to the Chief Justice for consideration and appropriate action.

Ndita’s racism issue is left unresolved.
