The charges were laid on the same day the public enterprises minister announced a new board at the struggling carrier
SA Express will be laying fraud and corruption charges against some of its former executives after a forensic investigation found that a number of transactions may have prejudiced the state-owned airline out of millions of rands.
This happened on the same day that public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan announced he had appointed a new board at the carrier after the suspension of several executive managers accused of of corruption. SA Express’s chair Tryphosa Ramano said on Thursday the transactions flagged by the forensic investigation included multi-million-rand cases of alleged collusion with service providers, manipulation of procurement processes, as well as the irregular and overpayment of suppliers.Ramano said the airline was continuing to strengthen its operational efficiency and governance systems.
