Former ANC MP Zizi Kodwa and businessman Jehan Mackay face renewed corruption charges over alleged bribes from government contracts, reinstated by South Africa’s NPA in January 2026.
The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) has reinstated corruption charges against former ANC MP Zizi Kodwa and businessman Jehan Mackay, reversing a 2024 decision to drop the case.
The move, made by outgoing National Director of Public Prosecutions Shamila Batohi in January 2026, follows new legal grounds and comes amid ongoing efforts to hold officials accountable for alleged state capture during Jacob Zuma’s presidency.
The charges stem from claims that Kodwa received bribes linked to government contracts, a case tied to broader corruption probes.
The NPA denies any leak, confirms proper notification of defense teams, and asserts the reinstatement is lawful.
The case remains active as both defendants prepare for trial.
