The Asset Forfeiture Unit pounced on the assets of a corrupt Eskom employee in Gauteng.
“The AFU investigators proceeded to residential addresses in Roodepoort, Cosmo City and Springs to execute a provisional restraint order granted on November 9 by the Gauteng high court that restrained more than R11m in assets after an application by the AFU.
“Shortly after the restraint order was granted a further three agricultural holdings in Springs linked to a trust belonging to Tshabalala were found and are restrained. The total estimated value of these agricultural holdings is R1.8m and investigations are ongoing to trace further assets,” said Mjonondwane.Moraka colluded with Tshabalala to create fictitious invoices for the payment of a route not covered in terms of the agreement between Eskom and Megra Transport.
The AFU will proceed with an application to institute a confiscation inquiry aimed at the recovery of the stolen funds in terms of the provisions of chapter 5 of the Prevention of Organised Crime Act.
