Bongo corruption acquittal: Hlophe created 'misleading precedent', NPA tells Appeal Court

Western Cape prosecutions head Nicolette Bell says Judge President John Hlophe got the law on corruption wrong – and created a “misleading precedent” – when he acquitted ANC MP Bongani Bongo of trying to corruptly collapse Parliament’s Eskom Inquiry.

Hlophe's Bongo ruling – a hand grenade tossed into...

On Friday the Western Cape Judge President, John Hlophe, ruled that the prosecution in the case of former state security minister Bongani Bongo did not have a case against him, in the allegation that he had attempted to bribe a senior official to stop Parliament’s Eskom Inquiry.
The ruling lands like a grenade in a set of dynamics involving the excruciating debate over the ANC’s “step aside” resolution, the recent attacks on the judiciary, and more importantly, the National Executive Committee’s (NEC’s) position on the corruption case against ANC Secretary-General Ace Magashule.
Perhaps more importantly for the judiciary, the ruling also involves the embattled Hlophe himself, a judge who has been accused of assaulting another judge and lying about it, and claims that he himself was involved in a case concerning his own attorney, Barnabas Xulu.

CAPE TOWN - Bongani Bongo's corruption trial has been dismissed.
Bongo's legal representatives say there was insufficient evidence presented in court on Monday for a conviction to be entertained.
The magistrate agreed.
Bongo faced charges of corruption, but he maintained there is a conspiracy against him.
He stood accused of offering a bribe to the evidence leader of Parliament's Eskom Inquiry to derail a 2017 probe.

CAPE TOWN - Senior Parliamentary officials say it was not their job to report an alleged bribery incident involving MP Bongani Bongo to the police.
Testifying in the Western Cape division of the High Court, both the Secretary of the National Council of Provinces Modibedi Phindela and the acting secretary to Parliament Penelope Tyawa backed up testimony from previous witnesses.
Tyawa testified that as the legislature’s chief administrator, it's not up to her to get involved in the conduct of MPs.
