TimesLIVE reports that two senior members of the Hawks (Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation) and a former police officer implicated in irregular promotional appointments were granted bail on Tuesday in the Pretoria Specialised Commercial Crimes Court.
Brig Peggy Mhlongo, 48, Col Malesela Motlana, 55, and a former colonel, Paulina Mokgadi, 57, stationed at the Silverton office, appeared on charges of fraud and corruption related to appointments made within the Hawks. On Tuesday morning, the Hawks’ serious corruption investigation team executed warrants of arrests for the trio, who allegedly misused their authority while discharging their duties as members of selection panels within the Directorate. Mhlongo and Motlana were granted bail of R4,000 each and Mokgadi was released on bail of R2,000. They are scheduled to appear again in the same court on 25 February 2021.
