The National Editors' Forum is supporting the Mail & Guardian's bid to get permission to publish a report.

The information purportedly proves allegations that presidential spokesperson Mac Maharaj and his wife received kickbacks while he was transport minister.

Sanef says information about someone who is at the heart of government is of major public interest.

The Forum has expressed concern about M&G reporters Sam Sole and Stefaans Brummer’s arrest after Maharaj laid criminal charges against them for being in possession of a document which could prove the allegations.
