Mpofu applies for Khampepe recusal over alleged bias in TRC Cases Inquiry hearings.

 Advocate Dali Mpofu, representing former President Jacob Zuma, making his oral submissions in support of a formal application for the recusal of retired Justice Sisi Khampepe. Mpofu argues that perceived bias arising from Justice Khampepe's previous roles makes her recusal necessary for the process to remain impartial. Justice Khampepe chairs the Judicial Commission of Inquiry investigating delays in the investigation and prosecution of cases referred by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission – commonly known as the TRC Cases Inquiry.  Former presidents Jacob Zuma and Thabo Mbeki are today making their  formal application for the recusal of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) Commission of Inquiry chairperson Justice Sisi Khampepe. The application comes after both heads of state expressed their disapproval of Khampepe’s involvement in the commission.
