Police Sergeant Fannie Nkosi is among a growing list of figures facing criminal charges linked to investigations associated with the Madlanga Commission, fuelling comparisons with the slower prosecutorial fallout of the Zondo era
The state said its financial investigation into suspended National Police Commissioner Fannie Masemola was at an advanced stage and it needed more time to verify new evidence provided by businessperson Vusimuzi ‘Cat’ Matlala
Masemola has become a co-accused in the case involving 12 police officials, three company directors and a R360 million contract awarded to Vusimuzi “Cat” Matlala’s company, Medicare24
The recent arrests of 12 senior police officials show how the alleged cartel leader took over the procurement process
Matlala’s Medicare24 contract was approved during Masemola’s tenure and later cancelled by the police commissioner after reports of poor service delivery and illegal procurement
North West businessman Suliman Carrim told the Madlanga commission he lost R8.4 million after funding Vusimuzi “Cat” Matlala’s healthcare company, alleging he was misled by both Matlala and Brown Mogotsi
