Five suspects linked to African Global Operations (Bosasa) alleged fraud have been granted R20 000 bail each.
Former COO Angelo Agrizzi, Former CFO Andries Van Tonder, Former employee Frans Vorster, including former correctional services CFO Patrick Gillingham appeared in the specialized commercial crimes court shortly after they were arrested on Wednesday morning.
The charge sheet also reflects former correctional services commissioner Linda Mti as accused number one, and Bosasa as African Global Operations and its two subsidiaries, Sondolo IT and Phezulu Fencing are among those on the charge sheet.
The arrests are linked to evidence contained in the Special investigation units report released in 2007 detailing fraud and money laundering between Bosasa and DCS.
A spokesperson for the Hawks Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi told Algoa FM news that a warrant of arrest was issued for a suspect in Port Elizabeth who has been informed of his imminent arrest.
This person, suspected to be Linda Mti, will now be taken to Pretoria to appear in court.
The five who did appear on Wednesday had to hand in their passports as part of their bail conditions.
The Hawks earlier told Algoa FM News that one suspect has since passed away and another one was out of the country.
The matter was postponed to 27th March.
