@iolnews: Padayachee outlined IDAC's legal mandate under Section 7(1)(a) of the NPA Act, which covers serious, high-profile corruption, commercial and financial crime cases—including common law offences like fraud and statutory offences under PRECA, PFMA, FICA, and others. He explained the flow process: complaints come via Section 27 referrals (on affidavit or sworn declaration), are assessed by a case intake committee, and if they fall within IDAC's mandate, a full investigation under Section 28(1) or a preliminary investigation under Section 28(1)(a) is authorized—with a designated team of prosecutors and investigators appointed by the Investigating Director. #madlangacommission
