Radebe,
Ngcuka and the mysterious death of a judge - 4 September
The mystery surrounding the seemingly violent death of acting Cape
High Court judge and ANC struggle hero Patrick Ntobeko Maqubela
continues to deepen. Maqubela was found dead in bed at his luxury
seafront flat on Friday June 7 by fellow acting judge Jake Moloi,
two days after police believe he died. Maqubela has taken some
damning political secrets with him to the grave. His list of
political connections reads like a who's who of ANC luminaries,
but Maqubela never publicly revealed the identity of "Mr
X", the man he believed betrayed him to the security police.
Although she lives in Johannesburg, Maqubela's wife, Thandi, was
staying with her husband during the week of his death. On Thursday
June 4, the day before police say he died, she is said to have
visited Justice Minister Jeff Radebe in Cape Town, allegedly
giving him reasons why her husband was unfit to be a judge. - Mail
