Roman Cabanac’s claim of unfair dismissal, seeking R5 million (approximately $330,000 USD), has been rejected. Cabanac argued his removal from his position was unjust and linked to political interference regarding his initial appointment. However, the case hinged on a ruling related to his security clearance, the details of which remain undisclosed. The court ultimately sided against Cabanac, effectively ending his legal bid for compensation. He had alleged his departure was a direct result of pressure stemming from political factors surrounding his hiring. The ruling suggests security concerns were the determining factor in both his dismissal and the court’s decision. Further details surrounding the clearance issues are expected to surface as the case concludes.
