PRETORIA - A high-ranking officer and seven others accused of corruption over a series of dodgy police contracts, have been released on bail.

The contracts in question were awarded between 2014 and 2017, for the procurement of toners, educational material and digital recording systems."The Investigating Directorate, advocate Andrea Johnson, commends the consistent hard work of the joint ID and police team. She further states that no government department will be exempt - proof of criminality and further arrests can be expected.
