Ramaphosa suspends Advocate Chauke
The Star
|July 23, 2025
PRESIDENT Cyril Ramaphosa has suspended South Gauteng Director of Public Prosecutions, Advocate Andrew Chauke, with immediate effect, following claims that threaten the credibility of the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) and his questionable conduct in office.
The presidency's spokesperson, Vincent Magwenya confirmed this in a statement on Monday evening that he would be on suspension pending an inquiry into Chauke’s fitness to hold office.
Magwenya said Ramaphosa had asked Chauke to provide reasons why he should not be suspended but the president decided suspension was the correct action pending an inquiry.
"Ramaphosa has informed Advocate Chauke of his decision in writing and indicated that the President and the public would benefit from an independent assessment of issues that require elucidation and on which there are disputes of fact.

Budget relief alone is not good strategy
THE withdrawal of R20 billion in proposed tax increases will be welcomed by South Africans, who have grown used to each Budget bringing another squeeze on their pay packets, but relief on paper does not change the fact that the economy remains too weak to carry the country forward with any confidence.
