'Scorpions like private army' ANC: Probe Zuma 'mole' report

Pretoria - The so-called "Browser Report" on alleged activities by Jacob Zuma bore "malicious intent", director-general in the Presidency Frank Chikane said on Wednesday.

He said the report was aimed at causing confusion, mistrust and division in the government and some political organisations.

"The report in question is no different from other malicious documents and hoaxes that have been dealt with," Chikane told reporters in Pretoria.

The report surfaced last month when it was sent to the Congress of SA Trade Unions (Cosatu) by anonymous fax. Cosatu asked the National Prosecuting Authority to investigate the document.

It claimed that Zuma was being bankrolled by Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi and Angolan President Jose Eduardo dos Santos in his bid for the presidency.

The document also named several companies purportedly set up to channel money to Zuma.

It claimed SA Communist Party leader Blade Nzimande was aiding Zuma by "promoting a street level revolution in South Africa, in support of Zuma's political aspirations.
