NPA subpoena ‘desperate attempt’ to prop up prosecution against Gordhan‚ organisations say

A subpoena issued by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) to the Government Pensions Administration Agency has been described as a desperate attempt to prop up the prosecution of Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan. Freedom Under Law and Helen Suzman Foundation said the timing suggested a “desperate‚ eleventh-hour attempt to prop up a prosecution that‚ clearly‚ was hopeless from the start”.
