The civil rights organisation AfriForum will approach the courts to obtain an urgent interdict to prevent government to pay an irrational and illegal donation of R50 million to the Cuban Government. The application also encloses a review application to overturn the decision to donate the money to Cuba.
AfriForum today in a lawyer’s letter to the Department of International Relations and Cooperation demanded a written explanation and reasons for the announcement that the government wants to allocate R50 million as a donation to Cuba. In the letter AfriForum demands that no funds be transferred to Cuba since no reasons for this decision have been communicated to the public. The organisation’s letter further demands an explanation of where the funds for this donation come from and how it can be justified in South Africa’s current socio-economic context.
