Security company boss in court for R26.8m tender fraud in Western Cape Wanda McCarthy allegedly exaggerated her company's assets and number of employees while submitting a winning bid to the SaldanhaBay municipality

Wanda McCarthy allegedly exaggerated her company's assets and number of employees while submitting a winning bid to the Saldanha Bay municipality for a R26.8m tender to provide security guards in six towns.National Prosecuting Authority spokesperson Eric Ntabazalila said the municipality issued the tender in 2018. A budget of R30.

“The security guards were required to be qualified to level C and possess legitimate [Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority] certificates. The company was also required to provide labour and transportation, with 10 vehicles registered in the service provider’s name at the time of bidding,” said Ntabazalila.

“Scrutiny of the company found the accused had made misrepresentations, stating her company had a workforce of between 400 and 600 employees and a registered fleet of more than 10 vehicles,” said Ntabazalila. Ntabazalila said investigations revealed two vehicles, which McCarthy allegedly claimed were owned by her company, belonged to private individuals not employed by Crime Force.
