Ishaqe izimpahla zomsolwa wokufika iNPA

I-National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) yaseNingizimu Afrika iqinise impi yayo yokulwa nezenzo ezingekho emthethweni embonini yezimayini zegolide. I-Asset Forfeiture Unit (AFU) isanda kuthola umyalelo wenkantolo wokuthi kuthathwe impahla engaphezu kuka-R3 million yabantu bangaphandle kanye namakhosikazi abo, yonke ehlobene neqembu okusolakala ukuthi elezimayini zegolide elisebenza eKhutsong naseCarletonville.

Laba basolwa ngoBethuel Ngobeni, Lerato Bathebeng, Poppy Mathongwane, Dumisani Moyo, Nhlanhla Leon Magwaca, Neo Susan Duba kanye noThabo Sechele basolwa ngokutholakala nezimpahla ezahlukene okubalwa izimoto, impahla kanye nemali ngendlela engekho emthethweni. Iziphathimandla ziphinde zathola ukuthi basebenzisa omazisi baseNingizimu Afrika mbumbulu.

Lokhu kuveza imnyakazo yakamuva ophenyweni olubanzi lwemisebenzi ye-syndicate. Phambilini i-NPA yathola ama-preservation order amathathu afanayo ngo-2023, okwaholela ekushaqweni kwezimoto ezingama-55, izakhiwo eziyishumi, kanye nemali engu-R91,000, okwenza inani lempahla eqandisiwe lafinyelela ngaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-R20.

“I-AFU ikwazile ukuthola ama-preservation orders amathathu ngonyaka odlule,” kusho uLumka Mahanjana, okhulumela i-NPA eGauteng. “Womane ama-oda afinyelela ku-R20m okuyizimoto ezingu-55, izindawo eziyishumi eKhutshong naseCarletonville, kanye nemali engu-R91,000 kanye nempahla ebalulekile.”

I-NPA manje isifuna imiyalelo yokudliwa kwempahla, okuthi uma ivunywa, ibavumele ukuthi badayise impahla ebanjiwe endalini yomphakathi. Imali etholwa ngokudayiswayo izobe isifakwa Ku-akhawunti Yokubuyiswa Kwempahla Yobugebengu (CARA).

Ngaphezu kwalokho, abantu abayisishiyagalolunye abathintekayo, okuhlanganisa abayisikhombisa okukhulunywe ngabo phambilini kanye nabanye ababili, bazobhekana necala eNkantolo eNkulu yasePitoli kusukela ngomhlaka-24 Julayi. Babhekene namacala okushushumbisa imali kanye nokukhwabanisa.

Leli cala ligqamisa imizamo eqhubekayo ye-NPA yokulwa nezenzo ezingekho emthethweni kanye nobugebengu bezezimali emkhakheni wezimayini waseNingizimu Afrika. Umphumela wokuqulwa kwecala uzobhekwa ngeso elibukhali, njengoba kungase kube isibonelo sezinyathelo zesikhathi esizayo ezibhekene nama-syndicates afanayo asebenza ezweni.
