IOL reports that a 62-year-old director of a security company appeared in the Kimberley Magistrate's Court in the Northern Cape on Monday, in connection with over R14 million in pension fraud.
Gert Remer van Rooyen, a director of Defensor Security Company, allegedly deducted contributions from employees’ salaries for the benefit of the Private Security Sector Provident Fund (PSS-PF) and failed to hand over the contributions to PSS-PF as mandated. “Defensor Security Company therefore owes PSS-PF an amount exceeding R14 Million, of which R11.1 million relates to outstanding contributions and the balance relates to late payment interest,” said Captain Tebogo Thebe of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (Hawks). The case against Van Rooyen was postponed to 22 July. He was charged with contravention of the Pension Fund Act.
