NPA sends Godongwana docket back to police
The National Prosecuting Authority has sent the docket involving Enoch Godongwana back to police in Mpumalanga to allow them to obtain a statement from the finance minister.
Godongwana is in hot water after an employee at a luxury hotel in the Kruger National Park lodged a complaint of sexual assault against him.
The incident allegedly occurred while he was receiving a massage in his room at the five-star Kruger Shalati lodge in Skukuza over the weekend.
