The matter was reported to the Hawks Serious Corruption Investigation Mpumalanga and the accused were arrested. The accused were sentenced to R5 000 or 12 months imprisonment plus 5 years wholly suspended for 4 years.

Mpumalanga Hawks provincial Head Major General Zodwa Mokoena has welcomed the conviction and applauded the investigating team.
