MK Party Reacts To NPA Decision On Phala Phala Case
- The MK Party has responded to the National Prosecuting Authority's (NPA) decision not to pursue prosecution in the controversial Phala Phala case.
- Dr. John Hlope accused the NPA of being compromised due to its failure to take action against President Cyril Ramaphosa.
- Hlope argued that President Ramaphosa is guilty of tax evasion and needs to be investigated for his role in the matter.
Let me tell you something that’s been buzzing around here. The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) is under fire. Big time. According to the uMkhonto weSizwe Party, better known as the MK Party, the NPA has been captured. Captured by whom? Well, that’s the million-dollar question. But the party is not holding back when it comes to voicing their concerns over the NPA's decision not to prosecute anyone in the Phala Phala case.
Here’s the backstory: The NPA recently announced that no one would be prosecuted in connection with the Phala Phala scandal. In their defense, the advocate assigned to the case explained that there was insufficient evidence to mount a successful prosecution. But the MK Party isn’t buying it. Not even for a second.
Dr. Hlope Promises Action
At a recent press briefing, MK Party Deputy President Dr. John Hlope made it crystal clear that this issue is far from over. In fact, they’re planning to bring it front and center in parliament. Watch out for what happens next because Dr. Hlope isn’t one to mince words.

“Mark my words. On Thursday, there’s going to be a question about Phala Phala. And I will be raising it in parliament,” he declared with conviction.
Dr. Hlope emphasized that the NPA’s decision not to prosecute President Ramaphosa left him utterly shocked. He believes this is more than just a procedural matter—it’s a fundamental issue of justice being undermined.
Hlope Claims Ramaphosa Is Guilty
Dr. Hlope laid it out plainly during the briefing. He stated that everyone knows where the stolen money was hidden—at President Ramaphosa’s farm under the mattress. And here’s the kicker: it was never disclosed. That means it wasn’t reported to the tax authorities. How does that sit with you?
He went on to explain that since the money was concealed and not declared during the relevant tax year, it constitutes tax evasion. There’s no way around it. This is a clear-cut case, according to Dr. Hlope.
“The president evaded tax. There’s no two ways about it. He is guilty of tax evasion,” Dr. Hlope stated firmly.
Hlope Accuses the NPA of Being Compromised
Dr. Hlope didn’t stop there. He took his critique of the NPA even further. He argued that the decision not to prosecute based on a lack of reasonable prospects of success doesn’t add up. In his view, these institutions, including the NPA, are being manipulated and controlled from afar by those who support President Ramaphosa.
He used a simple yet powerful phrase to describe the situation: “There’s a term for this in plain English. Those institutions, like the NPA, are captured.”
“There is a simple English term; those institutions like NPA are captured,” he reiterated.
NPA Declines to Prosecute
Briefly News recently covered the NPA's announcement that it would not prosecute anyone involved in the Phala Phala case. The case gained national attention when millions were stolen from President Cyril Ramaphosa’s farm in Limpopo and the theft went unreported. A criminal case was subsequently opened against the president, and many South Africans feel he should still be investigated for his actions—or lack thereof—in the matter.
