The western Cape MEC of Social
Development, Albert Fritz is disappointed at the manner in disregard shown by
the five convicted former SASSA employees for the seriousness of their crime,
during their sentencing trial.
This comes after the five
dubbed the SASSA 5 appeared in the Belville Commercial Crimes Court yesterday
for the start of their sentencing procedures after they were found guilty of
social grant fraud.
MEC
Fritz said, “This was unacceptable and
speaks to the culture of disdain and entitlement some SASSA officials are
accused of by poor residents of the province.”
The MEC said the department of
Social Development continues to call on SASSA to clean up its act.
The case has been postponed to
the 9th December 2015.
