The basis of the allegation was that he, during the period October 2002 to July 2004, during and after official office hours, retained and forwarded e-mails to other persons containing explicit pornographic material. This was done on and from a computer supplied to him by the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development for the exclusive use of the execution of his official duties as a magistrate.
