Show Notes
Former presidents Jacob Zuma and Thabo Mbekis attempt to remove Justice Sisi Khampepe from leading the Truth and Reconciliation Commission cases inquiry was dismissed by the high court on Monday. Their recusal requests were previously denied by Khampepe herself, and their main concern was her past roles on the original TRC and as deputy director of public prosecutions. However, the court ruled against them due to their failure to obtain approval from Chief Justice Mandisa Maya first, as required by law. This decision upholds protections for judges and allows the inquiry to proceed without further legal challenges.
