Nkabinde Inquiry panel rejects Batohi submission request

# The Nkabinde Inquiry investigating the suspended South Gauteng Director of Public Prosecutions, Andrew Chauke’s fitness to hold office, has rejected an application by former National Director of Public Prosecutions Shamila Batohi to submit written representations for inclusion in the enquiry record. Batohi sought to provide additional context following her incomplete cross-examination and decision to end oral testimony. The inquiry spokesperson Tiyisela Max Mpuzana says, after considering the application and legal framework, it declined the request as the enquiry finalises its report to president Cyril Ramaphosa.
