The South African Press Agency (SAPA) reports in an article titled, “Sex Questions Necessary.” Excerpt:
Cape Town – Presidential Press Corps (PPC) candidates will be expected to complete a questionnaire and, if necessary, follow-up interviews, but will not be required to undergo a polygraph test, Intelligence Minister Lindiwe Sisulu said on Saturday.
She was responding to concerns raised in the media over intrusive and “unsavoury” questioning of candidates by the National Intelligence Agency (NIA), as part of the security clearance procedures for the PPC.
