Bizarre SSA espionage investigation is a state sponsored political hit which must be investigated by the IGI
6 March 2015
That fact that the State Security Agency (SSA) has confirmed an investigation has been launched into allegations of espionage against Advocate Thuli Madonsela, Lindiwe Mazibuko, Julius Malema and Joseph Mathunjwa is bizarre.
All the paranoia, bottled up inside the ruling party, and the securocrats who serve the ruling party inside the SSA, seems to be spilling over as the pressure mounts on President Jacob Zuma.
There is absolutely no evidence that any of the individuals named are a threat or potential to national security and therefore they cannot be legitimate targets for the SSA.
The African Inteligence (sic) Leaks blog, which has been used as a pretext for the investigation, appears to be a lunatic fringe blog, dedicated to peddling conspiracy theories, and which cannot even spell "intelligence".
