Gerrie Nel to team up with Afriforum to launch privately driven criminal prosecutions

Advocate Gerrie Nel‚ who today resigned as a prosecutor‚ is to head a private prosecution team which AfriForum is currently establishing‚ TimesLIVE has learnt.

Reliable sources say the team will pursue prosecutions where the State “fails miserably or simply refuses to prosecute“.

Forensic consultant Paul O’Sullivan is believed to be part of the team.

Kallie Kriel of Afriforum would neither deny nor confirm that Nel would be joining the organisation.
