According to a report by News24, Myeni says she needs more time to respond to the arguments that have been given to her. She wants to respond in the best way that she can.
Myeni refused to answer questions posed to her by her State Capture Commission back in November, according to TimesLIVE. She argued that she didn't want to risk incriminating herself.
Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo told Myeni that her refusal did not exclude him from making an adverse finding against her.
