JOHANNESBURG – Supreme Court Vice President Raymond Zondo said on Friday he would decide whether former South African Airways (SAA) chairwoman Dudu Myeni could invoke her privilege of remaining silent.
He said the commission was giving Myeni the platform to respond to allegations made by witnesses against him.
Zondo said it was the last day of his testimony and that he would not be allowed to choose which answers to give if there were no reasonable reasons.
The leader of the evidence, defender Kate Hofmeyr, asked him how well he knew Bosasa’s CEO, the late Gavin Watson, and about his meetings with former COO Angelo Agrizzi.
“‘The meeting actually took place in Nkandla, there was no alleged bag of cash that was handed over to the president and that statement is denied.’ Mrs Myeni, as I understand this paragraph, you are confirming that at least one meeting took place in Nkandla in which Mr Agrizzi participated. Is that correct?
Myeni, however, said she was not responding so as not to incriminate herself.
“President, can’t I answer the question so as not to incriminate myself?”
