The Hawks said they were still interviewing witnesses in their high treason investigation against lobby group AfriForum.
Four dockets were opened in relation to claims made against President Cyril Ramaphosa and the African National Congress (ANC) to the United States government.

The groups have also spread misinformation abroad about South Africa’s Expropriation Act.
AfriForum and Solidarity have said they were not losing sleep over the high treason investigation into their conduct in relation to claims they made about South Africa to the international community.
And for now, they have little to worry about as the Hawks have not decided whether they ought to be prosecuted.
The investigation emanates from a complaint laid by the uMkhonto we Sizwe (MK) Party.
Hawks head, Godfrey Lebeya, said their probe continues.
“These kind of matters need to be approached carefully, as we are dealing with a serious crime here. Some witnesses have already been visited, there are others we are still visiting. At this stage, there is no material information that we shall be sharing.”
Lebeya said that while the Hawks must investigate the case, the outcome of the probe would determine if prosecution is warranted.
