Minister Mbalula must come clean on allegations to defraud Crime Intelligence of R50 million
5 February 2018
The DA welcomes the investigation by the Independent Police Investigative Directorate’s (Ipid) into allegations involving Police Minister, Fikile Mbalula, and the South African Police Services (SAPS) top brass in a failed bid to defraud Crime Intelligence of R50 million.
Mbalula was allegedly the mastermind behind this failed plot to secure funds to buy votes at the ANC’s elective conference in December last year.
The public deserves to know the full truth about the Minister and Police Commissioner Khehla Sithole’s possible involvement in this alleged act of criminality.
The DA will not sit back and allow for any member of the SAPS to involve themselves in the internal politics of a political party.
