For two years the man parachuted into a City of Johannesburg department dealing with the biggest and most crucial contracts required to run the city has been suspending and sidelining top officials in an apparent effort to direct the outcome of multimillion rand tenders. We track down who this man is and why it had taken so long for the city to investigate him
The State provisionally withdrew charges against Sibiya and former Hawks head Anwa Dramat in the Pretoria high court on Monday morning.
Dramat and Sibiya were facing charges of organised crime, kidnapping, violations of the Immigration Act and obstruction of justice
The Gauteng Hawks head made explosive claims of espionage and high treason against Paul O’Sullivan, a private investigator.
Nine charges, including treason, have been laid against Robert McBride, Shadrack Sibiya, Paul O’Sullivan and a crime intelligence officer.
The Helen Suzman Foundation and Freedom Under Law want Ntlemeza’s appointment declared irrational and unlawful, and set aside.

Gauteng’s Hawks boss has been re-suspended with immediate effect despite an initial suspension being withdrawn.
Shadrack Sibiya obtained an interdict against his suspension as the head of the Gauteng Hawks, but there are more details to come about the charges.
The Hawks have withdrawn the suspension notice for its Gauteng head, Major-General Shadrack Sibiya, with no reasons provided.
Major-General Shadrack Sibiya, the head of the Hawks’ Gauteng division, has been given a notice of suspension.
Allegations by Crime Intelligence of irregular rendition may be part of a campaign to discredit the Hawks and its chief, Anwa Dramat.
