The ‘Cat’ and a dozen cops in cuffs for alleged graft. Plus: EC ANC mess
Loading player...
The crucial work by our News24 Investigations team, in collaboration with journalist and author Jeff Wicks, over the past more than three years has finally seen the law catch up with the notorious Cat, Vusimusi Matlala, as well as a dozen police officers. They all allegedly colluded to push through a dodgy SAPS tender worth R360 million, all to line the pockets of Matlala and those closest to him. We touch base with Wicks and bring you the latest from court. Meanwhile, in the Eastern Cape, the ANC is fighting with itself over who will lead what's shaping up to be a highly contested provincial elective conference. We cross to journalist Soyiso Maliti for more. Finally, the Nieuwe Haerlem shipwrecks off the Cape of Storms in the 1600s, On This Day in SA History.
