Legal Practice Council stands firm on disciplinary action against Mpofu
The Mercury
|April 25, 2025
THE Labour Practice Council (LPC) has defended its decision to charge advocate Dali Mpofu SC, asserting that its national executive committee will not be used to settle political disputes between professional bodies.
This statement follows a stern warning from the Pan-African Bar Association of South Africa (Pabasa), which wrote on April 17 to LPC chairperson advocate Pule Seleka SC.
Pabasa cautioned the LPC to resist efforts to weaponise disciplinary proceedings against Mpofu SC for narrow personal or political reasons. Recently, the LPC announced charges against Mpofu SC, accusing him of bringing the legal profession into disrepute.
Pabasa expressed deep concern, describing the charges as “spurious” and aimed at intimidating Mpofu SC and unjustly tarnishing his reputation.
