The Commission of Inquiry headed by Justice Yvonne Mokgoro, which has exposed the criminal conduct of Nomgcobo Jiya and Lawrence Mwerbi in the National Prosecuting Authority .
They reaffirm our conviction in the sanctity of the Constitution and the exclusive judicial powers conferred on the courts, which, in a series of judgments, have continued in the important task of reaffirming the integrity of the institutional and legal framework.
