The truth about allegations of ‘Boeremag’ infiltrating SITA systems
4 May 2018
Media release in reaction to media reports of 2 May 2018 of allegations made in parliament of so-called ‘Boeremag’ infiltration of government SITA system. This media release also serves as reaction to allegations that former SITA employee, the now imprisoned Mr André du Toit, is involved with SITA infiltration.
It is common knowledge that Mr André du Toit had been friends with various members of SAPS and SITA due to him being a former employee of both SAPS and SITA since the 90’s. Some of his former colleagues, also being his friends, brought him food during the ‘Boeremag’ trial from 2003 – 2013. Du Toit lost everything while awaiting the imposing of his sentence for almost 11 years. Du Toit was only sentenced in October 2013 for an additional 20 years along with the other ‘Boeremag’ victims who received various sentences. Some of his former colleagues and friends made contributions towards his basic needs such as buying him telephone cards. According to Boervin’s knowledge Du Toit had last contact with friends on Facebook and e-mail in October 2013. This communication was during the time that Du Toit had obtained legal access to the Internet through a court application. Further contact that anyone had with Du Toit thereafter is unknown to Boervin.
Boervin suspects that it is highly unlikely that Du Toit infiltrated the SITA system and believes these accusations to be false propaganda to discredit the so-called ‘Boeremag.’ These accusations follow on the back of several so-called “national security threats” to draw attention to the ‘Boeremag’ who was disbanded 16 years ago.
