    We won’t lend credence to propaganda by commenting on desperate attempts to discredit our report. We don’t have “star or key witnesses” but multiple sources of evidence, including but not limited to documentation, video and audio recordings, and oral testimony shared under oath.

    DID YOU KNOW? The Con Court clarified in 2016 that remedial action taken by the PP is binding unless set aside by a court of law. Review applications don’t suspend implementation. Aggrieved parties should obtain a court interdict to suspend implementation pending the review.
