The embattled Deputy National Director of Public Prosecutions, Nongcobo Jiba has finally filed her answering affidavit. The application was submitted on Wednesday afternoon in the Western Cape High Court. The Democratic Alliance says it would like to see her suspended.

“She has always acted in good faith and that criticism by a court does not necessarily entail that a person should be disciplined and suspended.” The DA’s Samkelo Magobozi said.

He added that “She makes these assertions devoid of an iota of evidence to substitute her difference of opinion with the courts indictment of her conduct. She also suggests that the court had never made findings against her personally but only against her office, and she had relied on the advice of others. Not only is this a blatant attempt to deflect responsibility. An indictment of her poverty of leadership skills and integrity but it is also disingenuous.”
