“The Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation in Free State can confirm the existence of an investigation into the matter.
The investigation is almost on completion stage. Any developments pertaining to the matter will be communicated in due course.”
STEPUPSANEWS has reliably learnt those responsible said they procured 100 laptops but they can’t be traced, as per follow the money principle doctrine, the money department paid can be traced.

Why can ordinary Police inspectors not investigate this matter . Why involve The Hawks. Really?
To answer your question because there’s no trust in national police because of their bad reputations.
As we are speaking now we don’t trust the police, look out on Mkkhwanazi’s revelation , you will get your answer correctly.
I am 80 years old and never heard that a state entity must pay upfront for laptops.Surely the correct procedure should be to install first and approval of payment to follow.
I agree that arithmetic classes should be implemented immediately, if not sooner, or is this another lesson to late for the learning.
I trust that this type of crimmanality will be wiped out from the top to the bottom.
When will the Hawks that investigating Jo Sibanyoni?, the taxi boss and construction Mafia in the former Kwandebele homeland, now falling under the MP province. The guy has allegedly ordered many hits in the taxi industry and is involved with hitmen. He got the tender for Moloto Road and the construction has been dragging for years. He threatens anyone in the communities who dares to ask questions. There is a reason why Vusi Matlala attempted to kill him.
Please investigate this guy.
