Dr. Silas Ramaite, acting head of the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) after Shaun Abrahams departure, was arrested seven years ago for allegedly driving under the influence of liquor after a car crash.
The incident was near Louis Trichardt when his Jaguar was involved in an accident with a bakkie.
No alcohol breathalyzer test was done but police on the scene said he was under the influence based on his inability to walk properly.
He spent a night in jail and was released on R1 000 bail the next day. Blood tests were done and sent away but the prosecutor has withdrawn the case with the explanation that “there can not be a successful prosecution”.
