Abstract

South Africa, just like other countries, is grappling with corruption in the private and public sectors. For this reason, the state has adopted various measures aimed at fighting this scourge. Part of the measures adopted, in this regard, are the legal measures. This article argues that, in addition to the legal measures in place, there is a feasibility for victims of corruption to pursue a claim for constitutional damages arising from corruption by public officials. This contention is based on the fact that constitutional damages is an appropriate remedy for corruption cases involving public officials.
