As new controversy flares over the Auditor General's report on the multi-billion rand arms deal, the Democratic Alliance has called for a judicial commission of inquiry. "It appears that, despite the AG's repeated denials, he was indeed forced to bow to political pressure from the executive and in particular from President (Thabo) Mbeki," DA defence spokesperson Eddie Trent said on Friday. "The controversy surrounding the arms deal will not go away until it is properly investigated by a judicial commission."
