It is not for this court to do so or to speculate.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chetty specified that some allegations against the accused were a &#8220;stretch too far&#8221; and that &#8220;mere suspicions&#8221; were insufficient for a criminal trial.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to the media after his acquittal, an excited Mabuyakhulu said he felt vindicated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We made it clear at the outset, when these charges were preferred against us, that we were innocent of any wrongdoing against the state and people of South Africa,&#8221; he said in a previous News24 report.<\/p>\n<p>DA KwaZulu-Natal leader Francois Rodgers said they had written to Advocate Elaine Zungu, the NPA head in KwaZulu-Natal, for &#8220;steps to future-proof the organisation&#8217;s ability to ensure justice&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Rodgers accused the NPA of ineptitude and failure to live up to the promise set out in its indictment in the case against Mabuyakhulu and others.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is disappointing to note that the inability of the KwaZulu-Natal prosecution authorities has led, once again, to the failure of accountability and consequence in matters of such importance,&#8221; he wrote.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Judgments of this nature lead to an erosion of confidence in the prosecutorial efficacy of your office, particularly in the current climate of maladministration and corruption in our province,&#8221; he continued.<\/p>\n<p>NPA KwaZulu-Natal spokesperson Natasha Kara said: &#8220;We noted the judgment and have no further comment to add.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-africa\">South-Africa<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
