Marikana Massacre: Miners call for recusal of judge
The court case, in which survivors of the Marikana massacre are facing off against President Cyril Ramaphosa and Sibanye Stillwater, is expected to get off to a rocky start on Friday.
Lawyers for the survivors are calling for the recusal of Judge Colin Lamont.
They say he is compromised because he owns shares in Sibanye-Stillwater worth more than R200,000.
The JSE-listed mining group bought Lonmin in 2019.
At least 34 mineworkers were killed during the Marikana Massacre in August 2012 and several others were seriously injured.
They were demanding a salary of R12,500 and improved living conditions.
