Furthermore, Mogotsi accuses Chaskalson of manipulating evidence and maintaining a personal vendetta against him.

Speaking before the commission on Tuesday, Chaskalson stated he has not yet seen the complaint.

“We would have to consider our position and respond. If there is a response is necessary, I may need to seek permission to depose to an affidavit, and that would take some time. I would ask that we set a timetable for resolving this matter within reasonable time limits and not to delay the return of Mr Mogotsi unnecessarily.”
