The fourth instalment of Judge Raymond Zondo’s report on State Capture adds the names of about 30 individuals to the list of people that the Zondo Commission recommends for potential prosecution by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA). This brings the total number from the reports so far.
Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo expressed disappointment several times at the Eskom board members’ lack of diligence in doing their job and so allowing billions to be bled from the already ailing Eskom.
Each board member had their turn to be lambasted by Justice Zondo much like the parliamentarians who came before him in previous days for not asking informed and probing questions of the executive and performing the oversight role they were assigned to do. In particular, Zondo struggled to believe they did not notice they were handing billions of rands to the “proposed owners” of a coal mine rather than to the mine’s actual owners.
