DA welcomes new Hawks investigation into illegal VBS investments
2 March 2020
The Democratic Alliance (DA) in Gauteng welcomes the news that the Hawks in Pretoria have opened a new case in connection with the illegal VBS investment scandal.
In May 2018, the DA opened a case at the Carletonville police station regarding the illegal investment of R50 million by the Merafong Local Municipality.
However, the Hawks have informed the DA that they have closed the initial case that was opened and have now opened a new case for further investigation.
This indicates the seriousness of this matter hence a new case has been opened.
