18 July 2024 – The Commissioner for the South African Revenue Service (SARS) Mr Edward Kieswetter said that “he condemns in the strongest possible terms, the attempted assassination of Advocate Coreth Naude. This shocking act is intended to intimidate officers of the court to abandon the vital work they are performing in furtherance of our country’s legal system. It undermines the authority of the State. Acts such as these and those who perpetrate it, must be resisted and defeated by all of us working together for the betterment of our country and ensuring that none are above the law. SARS calls on our law enforcement agencies to act with speed in pursuing and arresting those who attempted to take the life of Advocate Naude. SARS wishes Advocate Naude a speedy recovery and wishes her family well. We will not be intimidated by such acts of crime and cowardice.”
