ActionSA criticises the government for choosing not to sanction India’s envoy, Anil Sooklal, arguing that accountability should not be selective. The party says the decision raises questions about the government’s accountability mechanisms, ethical standards, and how it responds to concerns previously linked to “State Capture.” ActionSA’s complaint centres on the perceived inconsistency between the scrutiny applied in similar matters and the current outcome involving Sooklal. The party frames its position as a broader demand for uniform enforcement of standards, rather than a dispute limited to one individual. By raising the issue publicly, ActionSA seeks clarity on why sanctions are not pursued in this case and whether existing processes for addressing allegations and concerns are being applied consistently. The criticism also calls attention to how the government handles public and political concerns connected to past corruption risks and alleged governance failures associated with State Capture.
