Posted on May 31, 2019 Leave a comment

The former Black Business Council president (BBC) and three of his buddies have been released on R5,000 bail each.

Danisa Baloyi and his three partners appeared in the Palm Ridge Commercial Court on charges of large-scale fraud and money laundering.

The four appeared jointly on the charge of about R5.7 million theft, which was donated by the Airports Company South Africa (ACSA) to the Black Business Council but apparently never came to the establishment.

Unconfirmed reports state that an additional amount of more than R1.4 million is also in jeopardy, but it could not be clarified as to the situation.

Posted on March 4, 2019 Leave a comment

Khomotso Phahlane, the former acting police commissioner, appeared in the specialized trade crime court in Johannesburg.

He and police chief of supply management, Ravichandran Pillay, were arrested on fraud charges.

They therefore stand with former Gauteng police commissioner Deliwede Lange and officials Vimpie Phineas Manthata, Ramahlapi Johannes Mokwena, James Ramanjalum and Nombhuruza Napo on charges of alleged fraud of more than R80 million.

The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) is expected to provisionally withdraw corruption charges against former president Jacob Zuma’s son Duduzane in the Specialised Commercial Crimes Court on Thursday.
