The Commission of Inquiry into allegations of State Capture says its final report will be handed over to President Cyril Ramaphosa on Monday after missing a court deadline this week.
On Saturday, Itumeleng Mosala, the commission secretary said: “The commission wishes to announce to the members of the media and the public that it was not able to submit the final volume of its report to the president on June 15 due to certain challenges.
“The electronic report will, however, now be certainly submitted to the president during the evening tomorrow, June 19. The handover ceremony will take place on Monday June 20 at the Union Buildings in Pretoria at 18:00.”
The news comes after Vincent Magweya, the Presidency spokesperson confirmed on Friday that President Cyril Ramaphosa has not yet received the final state capture report. The commission chaired by Chief Justice Raymond Zondo, was given a deadline of 15 June to complete its work and hand over the final volume of the state capture report to the president.
Part five includes investigations into the SABC, the State Security Agency, Estina Dairy Farm, the Waterkloof landing by associates of the Gupta brothers and the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (PRASA).
The commission chairperson Zondo had approached the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria and asked for an extended deadline to finalise the report.
