Abridged hoax e-mail documents released
The Constitutional Court this week released an abridged record of the proceedings in the appeal by ex-National Intelligence Agency Director-General Billy Masetlha.
According to a report on the IoL site, the record was released minus pages 114 to 175, or the whole of an affidavit made in camera by Masetlha. Also not publicly disclosed were pages 198 to 209 and 330 to 341, or the whole of a report by the Inspector-General of intelligence on the legality of a surveillance operation. Intelligence Minister Ronnie Kasrils and President Thabo Mbeki objected to the public disclosure of the documents after an interim ruling last week that the entire record be made public. In their objection, Kasrils and Mbeki contended that Masetlha\'s in camera affidavit had \'never been made public\'. Full report on the IoL site
