Former Social Development Minister Bathabile Dlamini is expected to appear in the Johannesburg Magistrates court for perjury.
The charges relate to her testimony during a Constitutional Court inquiry into the social grants crisis.
Judge Bernard Ngoepe found Dlamini’s conduct had been “reckless and grossly negligent” and ordered her to pay part of the costs of litigation.
Dlamini paid R650,000 to the organisations that took her to court.
