Departing public protector Lawrence Mushwana has received a golden handshake of nearly seven million rands, raising a storm about whether he is entitled to it.

According to reports Mushwana is also suspected of taking punitive action against the chief executive of the public protector's office Themba Mthethwa, for questioning the payout.

Mushwana suspended Mthethwa and the contested payout was deposited into Mushwana's account 48 hours later, the newspaper said.
