Fifteen people arrested in connection with alleged corruption in the SA Police Service related to PPE acquisition worth R1.9m appeared in court on Tuesday to apply for bail.

Chabalala said the state would oppose bail for the remaining accused because when they were arrested, they were out on bail for other matters.

According to the charge sheet, Mokwena, Ramanjalum, Mogotlane, Naipal, Makhetha and Mabasa were members of the police service. The charge sheet alleged that Chetty, owner of Siyangoba Trading and Projects, Khoza, Ngobeni and Mahlangu falsely and — with the intent to defraud — misrepresented to the National Treasury that Siyangoba was registered as a supplier of PPE in the central supplier database, was eligible to be invited to supply latex gloves to the police and that the principal business of Siyangoba was “medical equipment and supplier”.
