Police on the East Rand are reported to be preparing to swoop on the Ekurhuleni municipality and arrest five senior officials.
The Saturday Star says the crackdown could happen even before Wednesday’s election after the uncovering of an elaborate tender fraud in which hundreds-of-millions-of-Rands was spent on a computer system that does not work.
Whistleblowers are reported to have tipped off auditors. Specialist forensic investigators Aurco were called in when the scope of the fraud proved to be too big for the municipality’s auditors to handle.
