Public Protector Thuli Madonsela is set to be drawn into circumstances surrounding the government’s failure to arrest Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir‚ who attended the African Union (AU) summit last week.

This comes as reports emerged on Friday in the Mail & Guardian that the government had secretly planned Mr Bashir’s exit from SA well ahead of his arrival. He is wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for genocide‚ war crimes and crimes against humanity over the conflict in Darfur.
