Jonas Makwakwa resigns from SARS
Updated | By Sibahle Motha
Senior tax official Jonas Makwakwa has resigned from the South African Revenue Services (SARS) with immediate effect.

SARS commissioner Tom Moyane made the announcement in Pretoria on Wednesday.
Makwakwa resigned under a cloud of controversy in 2016 while facing a tax-evasion investigation and allegations of suspicious deposits into his personal account.
A disciplinary hearing subsequently found him not guilty and he returned to SARS in 2017 after he was reinstated by Moyane.
Moyane says that Makwakwa cited personal reasons for his resignation.
"He regards this as an opportune moment for him to exit SARS after being cleared of all allegations of misconduct through a formal disciplinary hearing, and after making an investigation report into allegations of impropriety against him and his personal tax information available for Parliament for scrutiny and for public accountability."
Moyane says Makwakwa's tax records will only be made available to Parliament under certain conditions.
"Together with SARS, a decision has been made to make Makwakwa's tax records to Parliament under conditions agreed between SARS and the Standing Committee on Finance."
Parliament gave Moyane until Friday, when he appeared before Parliament's Standing Committee on Finance on Tuesday, to release the KPMG report into the SARS rogue unit and Makwakwa`s tax reports.
Moyane assured the media that he would meet the deadline
