Media Statement WESTERN CAPE – Further investigations into tender fraud in the construction sector within the City of Cape Town municipality have seen Western Cape SAPS Provincial Commercial Crimes investigators descending on the Municipality’s offices in Cape Town this morning. Their presence is part of forensic investigations which emanate from a case that is running before courts. Several municipal officials and business owners are facing a myriad of charges that relate to the same investigation. Whether the investigations the commercial crimes detective team is embarking upon now, will lead to arrests, remains to be seen. As of now, no one has been arrested. Suffice to indicate, the team requests space to conduct its investigation. Speculation about who the investigation is directed at, seizure of items and possible arrests, would be premature at this point. It would be out of norm for SAPS investigators to discuss pertinent details of their investigations. Currently, focus is on presenting a strong case before court. Ends
