JOHANNESBURG – Hawks officer Terence Joubert said he recorded former Colonel Welcome Mhlongo’s conversation in which he was plotting the removal of the former head of the National Tax Authority (NPA), Mxolisi Nxasana, because it sounded dubious.
Joubert told the state capture commission that Mhlongo was allegedly hatching the plot with lawyer Nomgcobo Jiba.
He said that in the conversation the two were talking about digging up dirt on Nxasana to embarrass him and get him fired.
Mhlongo’s legal team tried to have his testimony postponed again, but Supreme Court Vice President Raymond Zondo dismissed the request.
He is expected to testify after Joubert, who explained how he was able to record.
“As soon as I had them, I obviously had to wait for an opportunity when he got away from me so I could get my tape recorder out of the drawer I had it in and stick it under the newspaper that was on. the table, ”Joubert said.
