Public protector looking into the funding of criminally accused DA councillor
Share
Cape Town - The public protector is investigating a complaint over the Cityâs payment of criminally accused councillor Nora Grose s legal bills.
This as the City, accused of also covering the costs of personal protection for Grose, on Tuesday said the embattled councillor had received threats in May and the matter was reported to police as well as the Cityâs VIP Unit.
The public protector investigation follows a complaint from Good Party secretary-general Brett Herron, who said the DA-led City must explain paying both legal and bodyguard costs to defend Grose, despite the DA previously challenging the government for paying for former president Jacob Zumaâs legal bills.
