Letsoalo denied request to join Prasa board's case
Pretoria - Former Prasa group CEO Collins Letsoalo's request to join the urgent court case by Prasa's former board members was denied by the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria on Friday.
Judge Peter Mabuse said he was not persuaded by Letsoalo's case and refused his application.
He had made an urgent request to join the former Prasa board's urgent application to have their dismissal by Transport Minister Dipuo Peters set aside.
Former Passenger Rail Agency of SA (Prasa) board chairperson Popo Molefe and other executives brought an urgent application challenging the minister's decision, which she announced on March 8.
William Mokhari, SC, for Letsoalo, said his client was working to clear himself of allegations the board had made in their affidavits, that Peters was protecting him and that he had increased his salary by 350%.
