Case against crime intelligence boss, cops to resume next year

The Pretoria Magistrate's Court granted the postponement yesterday as the State said it was finalising outstanding disclosures.

Khumalo and two co-accused, have also sought to amend their bail conditions so they can return to work while awaiting trial.

Khumalo and his co-accused were arrested in June on fraud and corruption charges linked to the alleged irregular appointment of civilian Dineo Mokwele to a senior post within Crime Intelligence. The State claims Mokwele's vetting and appointment bypassed security and recruitment procedures, implicating top management within the division.
