A second joint investigation involving the Public Protector, the National Prosecuting Authority and the Auditor-General will not be the subject of allegations related to wrongdoing in South Africa’s arms deal process.
According to reports by a weekend paper, they have come together in a joint consideration. They agreed that each institution would deal with issues that have been raided based on their own mandates.
In the report, the public protector’s office had received a complaint from the DA which made accusations of wrongdoing against Chippy Shaik.
Shaik, at the time, had been head of the procurement for the defence department in the multi-billion rand arms procurement process. His brother Schabir Shaik is in jail for corruption relating to the arms deal.
Reports stated that NPA spokesperson Panyaza Lesufi said they had had a request for information and investigation from ID leader Patricia de Lille.
