Former NMBM communications boss back in court Thursday


Former Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality Communications Manager, Ronald Williams, is due back in the Port Elizabeth Commercial Crimes Court on Thursday where he is charged with fraud.

A second accused was added during his last appearance in court in August.

Mango Moon Trading, which is trading as V & R Auto, will be represented by Renika Rungan, widow of Raven Rungan who was shot and killed in September 2015 in Port Elizabeth.

Williams was arrested on 6 July following an investigation by insurance company, Santam.

Following a brief appearance on the same day on a charge of fraud, Williams was granted bail of R2000.

The State alleges that Williams had taken his car to V&R Auto where the late owner had allegedly arranged for the vehicle to be smashed so that it could be written off for insurance purposes.
