However, the case must in retrospect serve to highlight two particular issues: firstly, the essential role that was played by the Directorate of Special Operations (Scorpions), which was controversially disbanded last year, in instigating investigations of politicians; secondly, the chronic failure of the ANC's policy of cadre deployment. 
Hata hivyo, kesi hiyo kwa kuangalia nyuma lazima isaidie kuonyesha masuala mawili: kwanza, wajibu mkuu uliofanywa na Kurugenzi ya Operesheni Maalumu (Scorpions), ambayo kwa utata kabisa ilisambaratishwa mwaka jana, kwa kuanzisha uchunguzi dhidi ya wanasiasa; pili, tatizo sugu la sera iliyoshindwa ya ANC ya kuwapa kazi au madaraka makada wake.
