PRESIDENT Ramaphosa issues suspension letters for Senzo Meyiwa judge and one other
The Judicial Service Commission (JSC) has confirmed that President Cyril Ramaphosa issued suspension letters to Judges Tshifhiwa Maumela and Nomonde Mngqibisa-Thusi.
This follows the recommendation by the JSC that the two Gauteng-based judges be suspended pending the outcome of complaints against them for delays in handing down judgments.
Maumela is currently hearing the long-running Senzo Meyiwa murder trial.
The judges will finish the matters before them, the JSC said previously.
