Cape Town:The Chairperson of the Impeachment Committee for Section 89 Enquiry, Mr. Makashule Gana, expressed approval of the Western Cape High Court's recent decision to dismiss applications filed by the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) and the African Legal Professionals Association (ALPA).

According to Parliament of South Africa, the applications challenged the committee's previous decision to withdraw its recommendation of Advocate Thandazani Madonsela SC as chief evidence leader. The High Court issued its ruling on Friday.

With the court matter now resolved, the Chairperson indicated that the committee will proceed with appointing a new chief evidence leader. The committee had previously decided to delay the appointment process pending the outcome of the court proceedings. Mr. Gana extended gratitude to the legal team representing the committee, acknowledging their efforts in the case.
