JUST IN : I just spoke to the Eswatini government spokesperson Thabile Mdluli. She says she doesnโ€™t want to come on air or to confirm whether or not any of the criminals travelled via South Africa. I tried to press her and asked โ€œbut can you assure us that they were not released to transit via SA?โ€, she responded with โ€œWe are not revealing the transit countries, Clement.โ€ We don't want to cause unnecessary panicโ€ she says. @ClaysonMonyela donโ€™t you think itโ€™s weird that they are refusing to confirm that these criminals didnโ€™t transit via SA upon their release?
Eswatini has issued a statement on this. The facts are laid out. Check the community note on the story as well.

DEVELOPING: Lieutenant-General Shadrack Sibiyas wife has made serious allegations in her supporting affidavit - claiming that Mr M (the father of the 16-year-old) was preassured by "Khumalo and Mkhwanazi" to continue pursuing the matter against Sibiya. She claims the "apostle" told the her that Mr. M wanted to drop the charges after he saw Sibiya weeping in the dock at the Randburg Magistrateโ€™s Court; however, Sibiyaโ€™s wife thought it was all a set-up and said they must just continue with the case. @eNCA

Ok, then suspend all DGs facing PFMA violations as per AG reports, because they still have to account to Parliment.

Then be transparent about it. You canโ€™t ask someone to stay at home on the basis of charges, but when charges are dropped you keep them at home, without even explaining the basis for that.
Replying to @TheRealClementM
Perhaps due dilligence is being applied, maybe theyre looking into everything to ensure nothing else will now pop up later on. That would be embarassing. Perhaps there may well be a discussion to mutually seperate i.e. golden handshake, early retirement etc.

So then my question stands, why hasnโ€™t the president cleared him to go back to work? What exactly is under consideration? If the basis for asking him to stay at home was the charges he faced, how could you continue that, if the charges have been dropped for what, 3 weeks now? Whatโ€™s the basis for keeping him at home? If the basis for him staying at home was the charges?
Replying to @TheRealClementM
He did that even before he was charged. Went to ad hoc twice but he was suspended for charges. The charges are gone. The reasons have been ventilated. If he was never meant to be charged logic dictates that he was never meant to be suspended.

[WATCH] Hundreds of foreign nationals have showed up at the Home Affairs Durban Refugee Reception Centre on Che Guevara Road (formerly Moore Road). HA recently directed its offices not to turn away people applying for refugee or asylum permits, following a ConCourt ruling. TCG

So the president wants the national police Commisisoner to answer to โ€œPFMA violationsโ€ in parliament first, before he can be cleared to go back to work? Is that it?
Wrong? Only criminal charges were widrewn, but still have to account to parliament on the (PFMA) violations, which the date is set according to parliament secretary. Then his not cleared to be reinstated ๐Ÿ˜‰

When is Police National Commissioner General Fannie Masemola returning to work? - @TheRealClementM Masemola was facing PFMA-related charges linked to the awarding of R360 million tender to alleged Big Five member Vusimuzi โ€˜Catโ€™ Matlala. The charges against him were withdrawn by the Pretoria Magistrates Court in September. #TheCMShow #SAPS #Ramaphosa #702WalkTheTalk

100% agree. But then again, itโ€™s the same home affairs department thatโ€™s raising alarm that this directive is going to burden the department. They should communicate how they plan to deal with the burden on administration. Because even the department itself admits it doesnโ€™t have enough capacity.
The @HomeAffairsSA or the interministerial committee on migration needs to do far more to counter the hysteria surrounding the directive on asylum seekers arising from the Constitutional Court judgment. Online bot accounts and anti-immigration groups appear to be using it to mobilise renewed opposition to migrants. Much of this hysteria rests on misrepresentations of both the directive and the judgment fuelling a deeply sinister narrative.

@TheRealClementM the world must blame Israel & USA for these record high fuel prices. Blaming it on Iran is unfair. Israel started this war unprovoked & somehow we must stand with them in attacking sovereign countries based on conspiracies The world is in crisis because of Israel
