SIU’s operation at a Sandhurst home connected to Tembisa Hospital Capture investigation.
The Activists and Citizens Forum is questioning the lack of arrests in the Tembisa Hospital corruption scandal, despite the Special Investigating Unit (SIU) identifying suspects and confiscating assets.
Over R2 billion has been allegedly stolen from the hospital, through corruption with syndicates working with corrupt officials to manipulate the tender system.
The Forum is calling on the Investigation Directorate Against Corruption (IDAC) to immediately arrest those implicated, including alleged kingpin Hangwani Maumela.

Activists and Citizens Forum spokesperson Dennis Bloem adds that they are calling on IDAC to act against looters because people have died in the process.
“We cannot read this thing lightly and think that things must just go. When we are listening to the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry, and to the Ad hoc Committee, you can see there is serious problems in the criminal justice system. Not only in the police, but the entire criminal justice system,” says Bloem.
