EWN reports that according to Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi, he has been served legal papers to reverse the suspension of the Gauteng Department of Health’s Head of Department (HOD) Lesiba Malotana.
Lesufi suspended Malotana last Friday, after he failed a lifestyle audit that was conducted by the Special Investigating Unit (SIU). A comprehensive forensic investigation has now been launched into Malotana’s lifestyle. Speaking at a media briefing on Wednesday, Lesufi indicated: “I received legal papers from people representing the HOD of the department, requesting me in 48 hours to withdraw the suspension of the HOD and I told them to jump to the nearest lake. Forty-eight hours have passed, and I have not seen their papers.” Lesufi reiterated that the decision to place Malotana on precautionary suspension had been the correct course of action.
