ANA reports that seven police officers were expected to appear in the Kempton Park Magistrates’ Court on Monday to face fraud and corruption charges for allegedly submitting fraudulent travel claims.
Hawks spokesperson Captain Ndivhuwo Mulamu said the officers allegedly submitted false claims between March 2014 and March 2015 for work trips to KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo and Mpumalanga. The state suffered a loss of an estimated R50,000 due to the fraudulent claims processed.

The seven were all released on a warning upon their initial court appearance, with conditions.
