Bongani Bingwa speaks with Elton Hart, legal expert from the University of Johannesburg, to reflect on a dramatic week in South Africa's courts and commissions, with some of the country's most powerful and controversial figures taking centre stage.

From former National Assembly Speaker Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula finally gone on trial, facing corruption and money laundering charges over allegations she accepted millions of rand in bribes while serving as Defence Minister; to the Johannesburg High Court, where alleged underworld figure Vusimuzi "Cat" Matlala is fighting for his freedom as his attempted murder trial unfolds. 

They also discuss IDAC head Andre Johnson facing tough questions at the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry over the controversial investigation into former Crime Intelligence head Dumisani Khumalo and allegations of political interference and abuse of power.

And in Parliament, another high-stakes battle is unfolding with President Cyril Ramaphosa's future remaining under scrutiny as the impeachment committee wrestles with the Phala Phala.

702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg-based talk radio station.
