The SACPs woes continue after a legal letter by its KwaZulu-Natal provincial executive committee PEC threatening to take its national leadership to court after its disbandment.
In a legal letter seen by the Sunday Times, lawyers representing the disbanded PEC said they are instructed to inform the national leadership that its decision to disband the PEC is unlawful and unconstitutional.
Similarly, the decision to appoint an interim structure instead of the PEC is unlawful. We are instructed that you forthwith reinstate the PEC and allow it to perform its functions. We are further instructed the suspension of the district secretaries be forthwith lifted, failing which our clients will have no option but to take legal action. We require your response by not later than January 8 2025, failing which we will proceed without further reference to you, the legal letter reads.
