The Hawks raided the offices of Limpopo premier, Stan Mathabatha, and several houses on Friday confiscating computers and a number of official documents relating to his international trips over the past five years.

Three travel agencies who handled Mathabatha’s international bookings and officials in his office were also raided.

The raid comes after an internal report - which Mathabatha allegedly has been sitting on - lifted the lid on widespread tender rigging, nepotism, collusion and abuse of office allegedly involving officials in his office

At this point let’s just jail the whole ANC and let them out one by one if they can prove innocence.

Just cabinet or all registered ANC members? Asking for a friend.

Is the comrade worried?

Limpopo is a cesspit of corruption and what they're investigating isn't even a hair of it. Malema's friends are still rich as **** and getting richer off of the fat of the province's taxes. In most cases they don't even bother with doing any work on the tenders they buy, they simply pocket the payments and go away unmolested.

Everyone. And all their uncles, aunts, and cousins, just in case.

Hawks raid in Limpopo flouted rules

The raid on the Limpopo premier's office by the elite police crime investigating unit, the Hawks, last Friday was not authorised by its high command and that all confiscated documents have since been returned.
Hawks national spokesperson Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi confirmed to News24 on Monday that certain issues were identified concerning the raid.

"Those are internal affairs that we are going to deal with. There are procedures that have to be followed before a raid can take place. There were some issues that we picked up on Friday that we need to attend to," Mulaudzi said.
However, he denied that documents seized during the raid have been returned.

"That there were challenges we picked up [concerning the raid] does not mean the investigation has stopped."
Last Friday, about 20 members of the Hawks arrived unannounced at the office of the premier to conduct a raid to collect evidence relating to large-scale corruption with regard to international trips taken by officials, including Premier Stan Mathabatha.

News24 was reliably told that the squad, which conducted the raid, had flouted internal basic procedures when an exercise of such magnitude involves a national key point like the office of the premier.
