Kreijcir loan cop did not resign: Hawks

The Hawks denied that a Germiston policeman who took a loan from a company associated with Czech fugitive Radovan Krejcir had resigned.

Head of the Germiston organised crime unit Colonel Francois Steyn, who reportedly took a R408,000 loan from a company associated by the Czech businessman, was on annual leave, said Captain Paul Ramaloko on Tuesday.

"Steyn never offered to resign," Ramaloko said.

Beeld newspaper reported on Tuesday that Steyn had resigned but that national police commissioner Riah Phiyega refused to accept his resignation pending the outcome of an internal investigation.

"He is also not suspended. We can't suspend a member based on media reports."

Ramaloko said that Steyn was on annual leave.

"We have a team looking into the allegations [against Steyn]."

On Friday the Mail&Guardian reported that Steyn had taken a loan of R408,000 from a company Groep Twee Beleggings, but did not realise that the company was linked to Krejcir until five months later.

"I never took possession of the money. I never saw the money," Steyn was quoted as saying.

The company was reportedly registered to Krejcir's wife Katerina Krejcirova.

Steyn said the loan was organised by security consultant Cyril Beeka, who was shot dead in March 2011, so that Steyn could be a part of a start-up security company.

According to Steyn, Beeka agreed to service the loan until the company was up and running.

After Beeka's death, Steyn received a summons for the R400,000 loan. A businessman friend of Steyn's said he was owed nearly this much by Krejcir and a deal was struck for these debts to cancel each other out.

On Monday, the High Court in Johannesburg granted an urgent application for Krejcir to be moved from jail to a medical facility.

Krejcir was arrested on Friday in connection with an alleged kidnapping and assault that happened in June. Krejcir's lawyers claim he was assaulted and tasered following his arrest.

Also on Monday, Krejcir and Desai Lupondo appeared briefly in the Palm Ridge Magistrate's Court but proceedings were held in camera due to security concerns.

If they are guilty they must be punished with 3 x the normal sentence and never be allowed to:
1) Own a weapon
2) Be in any lawful power of employment
3) Never be allowed to have a tender or even work as a civil servant.

And this?? So they were closer than one thinks.
 
Two Hawks members linked to Czech fugitive Radovan Krejcir were arrested on Tuesday morning, an official said.

"The officers are linked with Krejcir's kidnapping case only," said Hawks spokesman Paul Ramaloko.

National police spokesman Lt-Gen Solomon Makgale could only confirm one arrest made on Johannesburg's East Rand just after 8am.

"The 41-year-old officer was involved in the kidnapping and assault with intent to do grievous bodily harm that Krejcir has been arrested for."

Makgale said the investigations were ongoing and the possibility of more arrests could not be ruled out.

Kidnapping is a very serious offence, or at least when there was law and order it used to be.

Why not just hand this piece of scum over to Slovak authorities? Hasn't he been charged with kidnapping over there as well? He must GTFO before my taxed pay for his defense.
 
No in South Africa we treat criminals as 1st grade citizens..... Legal or illegal citizens. Our fantastic piece of crap constitution makes sure of it. Meanwhile law abiding real citizens must be treated like criminals and pay e tolls and taxes. And dare we speak out about it

In fact they do. I know for a fact that there are a number of people who indeed report income to SARS as proceeds from crimes. However, SARS is not allowed to report these people to law enforcement. On occasions they do, however, do audits and try to determine the amounts generated in order to ensure the correct amounts are declared.

Let me just come audit quickly your 50kg of heroin. Hell might as well get health and safety to come check the manufacturing equipment too.
