The evidence leader in the Judicial Conduct Tribunal against Eastern Cape Judge President Selby Mbenenge says the case is not merely about allegations of sexual advances, but about an abuse of power.
The tribunal, sitting in Johannesburg on Tuesday, is hearing closing arguments in the sexual harassment case brought by court secretary Andiswa Mengo against Mbenenge.
Evidence leader, Salome Scheepers, told the panel that sexual harassment often reflects dynamics of dominance and control, rather than desire.
