High Court suspends remedial action against Gordhan

Reading Time: < 1 minute

The High Court in Pretoria has suspended the Public Protector’s remedial action against Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan, pending a judicial review in the SARS Rogue Unit matter.

Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane found that Gordhan’s establishment of the so-called Rogue Unit, while he was still Commissioner of the Revenue Service in 2007, was a violation of the Constitution.

Gordhan brought the urgent application to interdict Mkhwebane’s findings suspended until the judicial review has been concluded.

Judge Sulet Potterill has granted the urgent interdict.
