Ratha's objective appears clear: keep Buthelezi locked up at Mampuru throughout the court recess, creating an environment where pressure can be applied behind the scenes. The strategy is aimed at pushing Buthelezi to adopt and admit to the disputed statement, thereby shielding Gininda from the full consequences of the law.
Baloyi and Ratha understand the stakes. If Gininda's credibility collapses or he is found to have acted unlawfully, the fallout will not stop with him. It has the potential to expose everyone linked to the decision-making process. That is why the battle is no longer merely about Senzo Meyiwai; it is about protecting Gininda and preventing a chain reaction that could implicate others.
Their concern is simple: if Gininda falls, those who enabled, defended, or relied on his actions may fall with him.
