The Truth and Reconciliation Commission TRC Cases Inquiry has been adjourned until November 26. This is to allow the National Prosecuting Authority NPA and the Justice Ministry to file a formal application for the recusal of Commission Evidence leader Advocate Ismael Semenya.
The Justice Ministry has objected to the process that it says Semenya has taken in making an agreement with six of the parties that will testify without its input.
The NPAs objection is based on the fact that Semenya advised it on its prosecutorial policy at some time in the past saying it is therefore inappropriate for him to be involved in the Commission where the state prosecutor is a respondent.
