SARS was captured: Pillay─── 06:51 Sun, 07 Aug 2022
Former SARS Deputy Commissioner Ivan Pillay was cross-examined for almost 10 hours about his experiences with suspended Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane.
Pillay was giving evidence from abroad during the Inquiry into Mkhwebane's fitness to hold office.
He was grilled about his early retirement and the so-called rogue unit.
Pillay denied the unit was unlawful saying it was all above board.
And while the Public Protector made several adverse findings against Pillay, he believes he was not the target, but that SARS was being captured.
