TimesLive reports that the executive mayor of the City of Johannesburg‚ Herman Mashaba‚ has received a report on employees working at the Joburg Theatre without proper documentation.
“Today‚ my office has received a final report detailing alleged fraudulent activity and misconduct perpetrated by eight current employees at Joburg Theatre. The contents of the report flow from an investigation into the authenticity of asylum permits and special work permits held by various foreign nationals employed in the catering and hospitality sections of the theatre‚” Mashaba indicated in a statement. Evidence has revealed that six asylum permits held by implicated employees are fraudulent, while two other permits expired in early June 2016. A case of fraud has been opened with the police and the arrest of those implicated is expected soon. Mashaba has been widely criticised for his stance on illegal foreigners living in the city.
