💨 Abstract

President Cyril Ramaphosa has suspended the South Gauteng Director of Public Prosecutions, Andrew Chauke, pending an inquiry into his fitness for office. The suspension, effective immediately, is due to concerns over Chauke's conduct in critical cases and the potential negative impact on the National Prosecuting Authority's (NPA) reputation. Ramaphosa believes Chauke cannot fulfill his duties optimally while under investigation, marking a significant step toward restoring public trust in the NPA.
