This morning the Hawks arrested two Home Affairs officials for theft.
Hawks Spokesperson Captain Paul
Ramaloko said the two officials received R140 for each identity document which
they did not process.
The suspects were tasked with helping school children get their identity documents.
Ramaloko said the case was brought
to the Hawks by the department of Home Affairs in June this year.
It is alleged that the officials
were pocketing the money paid to them by the clients that had went to the
department to renew their documents.
Ramaloko further said the two
officials arrested today will remain in police custody until they appear in
court on Monday on charges of theft.
He added that more arrested are
expected.
