Police officers still in the service despite corruption charges

A total of 22 police officers are still in the service, despite being implicated in an R56-million police vehicle marking tender.

In total, 42 people are facing a range of charges including corruption, fraud, money laundering, theft and perjury related to the deal. Their court case has been postponed to March next year.

Initial investigations uncovered massive looting of state funds through cover quoting and fraudulent processing of contracts to unlawfully award the same supplier who had numerous companies registered on the SAPS supplier database.

The state asked the court for a postponement to finalise forensic investigations. The accused are all out on R5,000 bail.
