Des van Rooyen wants to cross-examine former Treasury DG Lungisa Fuzile
18 February 2019
Des van Rooyen, who was appointed finance minister by former president Jacob Zuma for a calamitous weekend in December 2015, wants to apply for leave to cross-examine former Treasury director general Lungisa Fuzile at the state capture commission of inquiry.
Van Rooyen has also indicated his interest in testifying before the commission.
But inquiry chairperson, Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo, postponed the application, saying that a fresh date would have to be arranged.
"It is important that this commission be fair to all parties," he said.
