President Cyril Ramaphosa has initiated legal proceedings to halt the parliamentary impeachment committee's work and to have an independent panel’s report overturned, arguing that the process must await court review.

President Cyril Ramaphosa filed a notice of motion in the Western Cape High Court seeking to prevent the parliamentary impeachment committee from proceeding with its work, according to citizen.co.za. He also initiated legal proceedings to have the independent panel’s report overturned, as reported by bluesky. Ramaphosa claims the impeachment process, if allowed to proceed before court review, would cause him significant harm, according to allafrica. He argues that the Constitutional Court ruling has revived a report that could ultimately threaten his presidency, as reported by allafrica. Ramaphosa states he had no alternative but to seek court intervention.
