Tzaneen – A Limpopo law firm director has been arrested for
theft and fraud amounting to R1.9m, said the Hawks.
The priority crime investigations unit spokesperson Captain
Matimba Maluleke said the director allegedly claimed money from the Road
Accident Fund on behalf of unnamed clients.
"After the money was paid into the trust account, he
withdrew all of it for himself without paying out the clients," said
Maluleke.
The suspect appeared in the Tzaneen Magistrate's Court on Thursday
and was granted R5 000 bail.
The case was postponed to April 12 for further
investigation.
