The court will hear evidence of former Judicial Service Commission (JSC) official, Kutlwano Moretlwe.
Moretlwe is the individual who assisted Judges’ Secretary Andiswa Mengo with her initial complaint against the top judge on December 17, 2022.
The circumstances surrounding the initial complaint are crucial for a few reasons.
The evidence is crucial as the tribunal previously heard that retired Chief Justice Raymond Zondo was allegedly “not satisfied” with Mengo’s initial December 2022 complaint and requested that she lodge a new one.
This runs contrary to Mengo’s evidence that she was told her initial complaint was "misplaced" and she had to write a new complaint in the form of an affidavit.
It will also determine whether Mengo wrote her new complaint without a copy of the initial one, as she previously testified.
