The Democratic Alliance has welcomed Public
Protector Thuli Mandonsela’s decision to investigate certain aspects of the
scandal surrounding the controversial landing of the Jet Airways at Waterkloof
Air force Base.
Public Protector's spokesperson Kgalaelo
Masibi says, however, that the role of Cabinet Ministers in the landing will
not be investigated, due to insufficient evidence.
DA MP of Defence and Military Veterans
David Maynier said that they welcome the fact that the public protector will
effectively be investigating the investigation into ‘guptagate’.
“But it is off course disappointing that
the public protector will not be investigating the role of President Jacob Zuma
and his cabinet in ‘guptagate’,” added Maynier.
He furthermore said that this is not the
end as they DA they will not give up, they will continue to investigate the
saga of ‘guptagate’ with the view of gathering more evidence on the role of
President Jacob Zuma and members of his
cabinet.
