Clinton Oellermann‚ who was the SIU's lead investigator into Bosasa‚ told the state capture inquiry on Monday that criminal charges could have been brought against Bosasa's executives after the team released its findings in 2009.
He said although there was space for further investigations‚ he could not understand why it had taken 10 years for the police to make an arrest. In 2009‚ the SIU completed a report that showed corruption in four tenders awarded to Bosasa by the department of correctional services worth more than R1.5bn. It found that the facilities company allegedly bribed former prisons boss Linda Mti and the department's chief financial officer Patrick Gillingham to gain the contracts. However‚ no action was taken by the National Prosecuting Authority .
