JOHANNESBURG – Norma Mngoma is expected to return to the Pretoria High Court on Thursday, where arguments will be heard to challenge the validity of her arrest.
The estranged wife of former Cabinet Minister Malusi Gigaba was arrested in July and spent one night in police holding cells in Brooklyn.
The Hawks also confiscated his electronic devices, which are now part of his legal challenge.
Mngoma’s lawyers have asked the prosecution to explain what information was extracted from their devices and what was erased.
She has argued in court documents that her arrest was an orchestrated plan to intimidate and harass her in order to illegally confiscate the devices.
This matter is separate from the criminal case facing the 40-year-old in the Pretoria Magistrates Court.
She has been charged with the crime of injury and willful damage to property for allegedly damaging a luxury vehicle belonging to her husband’s friend.
That case was postponed until October 23 to allow the conclusion of the process before the Superior Court.
