The Pretoria based Hawks’ Serious Corruption Investigation team served two Tshwane Metro police officers, aged 37 and 38, on 05 October 2023 with a summons to appear in the Randburg Magistrates’ Court on 27 October 2023 in relation to alleged corruption charges.
It is alleged that in August 2018, a motorist who was driving a vehicle with an expired licence disc was stopped by the Metro police officers in Diepsloot. It was reportedly discovered that the disc is no longer valid and he was threatened with impoundment. A R1500 gratification was allegedly demanded and paid to the officers. The motorist was further issued with an infringement notice.
The incident was reported to the Diepsloot police and it was transferred to the Hawks for further handling.
