Former Hawks boss Anwa Dramat, suspended Gauteng Hawks boss Major General Shadrack Sibiya and Hawks Colonel Lesley Maluleke are expected back in the Pretoria Magistrate’s Court today.

On August 19 the court authorised a warrant for the arrest of the former head of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation after Dramat missed his court appearance.

It is alleged that Dramat and his co-accused were involved in the arrest of four Zimbabwean immigrants and their subsequent illegal rendition to that country in late 2010 and early 2011. 

 

Hlaudi Motsoeneng’s salary was increased by almost half a million rand, from R3.7-million to R4.1-million during the 2015/16 financial year, the DA said yesterday.

This was in response to the news that the SABC posted a R411-million net loss for the 2015/16 financial year ending on March 31.

In a statement, DA spokesperson Phumzile Van Damme said the former SABC COO salary was increased by almost half a million from R 3,784,000 to R 4,197,000 during the 2015/16 financial year, making him the highest paid executive at the SABC.

 

Minister in the Presidency responsible for Monitoring and Planning Jeff Radebe said he was surprised when he saw Mineral Resources Minister Mosebenzi Zwane’s insistence that he had the Cabinet’s backing when he issued a statement about a bank probe on September 1 this year.

City Press reported that Zwane maintained that the statement about a possible investigation into the banks that broke ties with the Gupta family was not sent out by him alone, but in his capacity as chairperson of the inter-Ministerial committee.
