'I am a witch hunt victim'

FORMER Human Settlements Mayco Member Malusi Booi says he is the victim of a political witch hunt.

Booi was arrested last year, on charges related to alleged tender collusion linked to construction companies owned by suspected underworld figures such as alleged 28s dik ding Ralph Stanfield and his wife Nicole Johnson.

Now Booi has implicated two senior City officials in what he described as a witch hunt leading to his arrest over tender collusion charges, which the National Prosecuting Authority subsequently withdrew provisionally on Friday.

In an interview with the Cape Times, Booi spoke of what he believed led to his arrest.
