The Post reports that three persons, including two traffic officers, were convicted of corruption in the Cape Town Regional Court on Monday for their roles in a scheme involving false drivers’ licences.

The accused are Karel Davids, 53, and Andile James Dondolo, 57, who are traffic officers, and Jason Naidoo, 59, a civilian. Lieutenant Colonel Siyabulela Vukubio of the Hawks reported: "During 2016, information was received regarding two traffic officers at Ashton Traffic Department, who were involved in the issuing of false learners driver’s licences. The matter was investigated by the Hawks and the two officers were identified as well as the person who corrupted them, which resulted in their arrest in August 2016." After the accused were convicted, their bail was withdrawn and they were remanded in custody until their sentencing. Sentencing is expected next month.
