|November 13, 2025
A STATE witness who was part of the management at eThekwini’s City Integrity and Investigations Unit (CIIU) is set to continue with his testimony in 2026 at the R320-million fraud case involving Zandile Gumede, the former eThekwini mayor, and 21 others.
The accused faces fraud, corruption, money laundering, and contravention of the Municipal Finance Management Act and the Municipal Systems Act, related to the R320-million Durban Solid Waste (DSW) tender.
The witness, who cannot be named, was told by Judge Sharmaine Balton that he would be called to continue with his testimony next year, while the matter is expected to continue next week.
The decision came after a long meeting in chambers with all the legal counsel in the case. It is currently not clear what might have led to the decision.
