FILE | Businessman Vusimusi ‘Cat’ Matlala in court.
Tembisa tender kingpin Morgan Maumela’s name came up during the cross-examination of North-West businessman Brown Mogotsi.
This as evidence leader Adv Matthew Chaskalson mentioned to Mogotsi that he is in possession of text messages between Maumela and attempted murder accused Vusimuzi ‘Cat” Matlala.
Maumela’s name made headlines this year when the Special Investigative Unit (SIU) seized assets from his Sandton property.
This was for his involvement in the 2 billion rand Tembisa tender scandal.
Adv Chaskalson put it to Mogotsi that messages between Matlala and Maumela suggest that Maumela was interested in the R360 million SAPS tender.
This is the same tender that Mogotsi claimed he was investigating.
But Mogotsi told Chaskalson that he had no knowledge of the information put to him
Mogotsi will continue under cross-examination this morning where the evidence that he has presented will be tested.
His relationship with deputy national police commissioner General Shadrack Sibiya and police minister Senzo Mchunu will be probed.
