Former director of minerals and energy Thibedi Ramontja is expected to testify at the judicial inquiry into allegations of state capture on Thursday.

The commission on Wednesday heard an application from Tom Moyane to cross-examine Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan.

Gordhan's lawyer, advocate Michelle Le Roux, argued before inquiry chairperson Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo that: "Mr Moyane very explicitly tells you that he is here to rehabilitate his reputation and career prospects… he is asking for your help to rehabilitate his discredited name."

Gordhan submitted that Moyane's application is a "poorly disguised attempt" to use the inquiry as a political platform through his legal representatives.
