Hlope tribunal postponed indefinitely

Reading Time: < 1 minute

The tribunal investigating the alleged conduct of Western Cape Judge President, John Hlophe, has been postponed indefinitely.

This after Judge Cogney Musi recused himself from the tribunal panel that was appointed in 2013.

Judge Musi says the hearing is plagued by controversy.

The hearing was supposed to start Monday morning with Judge Hlope facing allegation that he influenced Constitutional judges in the case involving former president Jacob Zuma.

Judge Musi also recused himself following Judge Hlophe’s objection to his participation in the Tribunal.

The hearing will continue next month after Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng fills the vacant position left by Judge Musi.
