|October 24, 2025
MINISTER of Justice and Constitutional Development Mmamoloko Kubayi has revealed that more than R35 million was paid in salaries to suspended employees within her department over the past five financial years.
The disclosure followed a parliamentary question by RISE Mzansi MP Songezo Zibi, who asked for details on the reasons for suspensions, expected timelines for disciplinary hearings, and monthly payments made during suspensions.
Kubayi said that during the third quarter of 2024, 22 employees were suspended, with 10 of them suspended "for financial misconduct and maladministration".
