He said he needed to weigh up the urgency of finalising disciplinary processes against Moyane with the suspended commissioner’s rights to a fair and equal process.
He said that if the court dismissed Moyane’s application‚ it would put both parties on a tight timeline – but if it sided with the application‚ it would render any progress on the disciplinary hearing a waste.
Bham therefore postponed the hearing pending the outcome of Moyane’s present application to the country’s highest court.
TimesLIVE previously reported that Moyane had approached the Constitutional Court to have his disciplinary inquiry decided through oral evidence‚ and was fighting Ramaphosa’s “decision to deny me my right to an oral hearing and/or cross-examination of witnesses‚ alternatively to make the right of cross-examination subject to the discretion” of Bham or Nugent.
