As part of an intense investigation by the Provincial Commercial Crime Investigation Unit, involving the fraudulent procurement of personal protective equipment in the Cederberg Municipality, summonses were executed to the directors of three different companies to make their court appearances in the Clanwilliam Magistrate court on Thursday 24 November 2022.
The first appearance of the accused is the culmination of ongoing investigations to rid the country of individuals who intend to benefit as a result of fraud and corruption.
They will join their co-accused who were previously arrested on the same charges.
The accused were released on warning to appear in court on Tuesday 6 December 2022 as one of the accused need to apply for legal representation.
As the investigation continues more arrests are imminent.
Further details about the case and the unfolding investigations are expected to emerge from court.
