The hearing of former Eskom chief executive Brian Molefe was abruptly halted at the commission of inquiry into state capture on Friday after an official who works closely with its chairperson tested positive for Covid-19. Justice Raymond Zondo announced that Molefe would not continue testifying as a result.
âWe are unable to continue. Somebody who works very closely with me has tested positive for Covid-19,â Justice Zondo announced, adding that he would be required to self-isolate.
He continued: âIt is unfortunate but it is the reality we are all faced with nowâ.
