JOHANNESBURG – The Special Investigation Unit (SIU) was in the northwest on Friday morning raiding the municipal offices of Matlosana as part of its investigation into the corruption of the PPE.

The SIU seized documents, computers and other evidence at the Klerksdorp facility.

He was investigating several officials accused of nepotism who allegedly awarded PPE contracts to friends and family.

The unit says it received information from whistleblowers and obtained a search and seizure warrant from the courts.

Spokesman Kaizer Kganyago said the unit had demanded an explanation from the municipality, but did not provide one.

“Part of the accusations is that there is a willingness to destroy some of the documents that we need and we feel that we had to come and conduct a search and seizure and obtain all the documents that we will need that prove that the R47 million that was used for EPP it was done in a corrupt way and that is why we are here. “
