Surty Defends Role in TRC Prosecution Delays | Johannesburg News
Description
Former Justice Minister Mohamed Surty testified this week denying direct involvement in delaying apartheid-era TRC prosecutions, claiming he never interfered with investigations and that such decisions rested solely with the NDPP. He recalled only a memo proposing a TRC task force, which he said was affected by the looming 2009 elections and his own preoccupation with the unfinished Ginwala Commission. Surty’s testimony aimed to distance himself from political interference allegations, as the commission continues its probe into why these critical cases remain stalled.
