The Hawks’ Serious Corruption Investigation team has arrested four additional suspects in a continuous fight to combat fraud and corruption at vehicle testing station in Musina, Limpopo, on Wednesday.
Amongst the arrested suspects are two vehicle examiners and two clerks all from a private vehicle testing station in Musina who were allegedly using identity particulars of unsuspecting victims to issue roadworthy certificates for vehicles that were never subjected to mandatory tests.
The arrests follows a recent similar success in Musina late last month where another four officials from Thusalushaka testing station were apprehended. The group aged between 28 and 37 are expected to appear at the Musina Magistrate’s Court on Friday to face charges of corruption and fraud.
More unannounced operations to address fraud and corruption at vehicle testing stations will continue unabated.
