Crime Intelligence head Khumalo to appear in Pretoria court


South African Police Service (SAPS) Crime Intelligence head Lieutenant General Dumisani Khumalo is scheduled to appear before the Pretoria Regional Court on Wednesday.

The court will hear further evidence in a case involving charges of fraud and corruption against Khumalo and six others.

The intelligence chief and his co-accused were arrested in June by the National Prosecuting Authority’s Investigating Directorate Against Corruption.

The charges stem from the alleged irregular appointment of Brigadier Dineo Mokwele to a senior position within SAPS Crime Intelligence, allegedly bypassing required vetting procedures and the procurement of two luxury buildings in Pretoria and Durban with a combined price tag of around R44 million.
