Hawks arrest ANC MP over bribery allegations
The Hawks has arrested an ANC MP in Cape Town on Thursday morning. The suspect is expected to appear in court on bribery charges. The MP is also a portfolio committee chairperson. We cannot name the suspect now as he has not appeared in court but we can confirm that the arrest was made this morning,” said Hawks spokesperson Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi. We are processing him for court.
In a separate matter, about 10 other people have been arrested across several provinces for corruption. Several ANC officials have been accused of being linked to Siyenza Group, a company which investigations showed had not been arrested at the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC).
“There is another sweep that we are conducting in different parts of the country, where we are going to be arresting about 10 suspects for corruption. So those are the two main issues that we are dealing with today,” said Mulaudzi.
“Both cases we are dealing with are corruption-related. They are both separate cases. The one that is being dealt with in Cape Town is our main office that is dealing with that, and the other ten suspects [are] being dealt with by our Eastern Cape office.
