|July 08, 2025
THE murder of Mpho Mafole, the group divisional head for corporate and forensic audits at the City of Ekurhuleni municipality, has sent shockwaves through the city.
Mafole was shot dead on the R23 in Kempton Park on June 30.
Sources close to the municipality believe that Mafole's death was a hit, linked to his investigation into a massive R2 billion electricity billing scandal he was close to uncovering.
According to a senior member of the municipality, Mafole was murdered just months after joining the city, and his team were probing the matter.
