Chief's Office

The forensic audit report compiled by Freddy Chauke was delayed in being forwarded from Brigadier Minnaar to Group Audit and Risk (GAR), getting stuck at the Chief's office and only submitted late, despite its critical nature for the investigation.

“Brigadier Minnaar sent it to Deputy Commissioner Dhlamini to say to him DC here is our report with the recommendation that it be forwarded through the Chief's Office to GAR . It got stuck there , it never went further than that and on the 10th of March when I started to query and to say actually I started the week before because the forensic investigators were with me and I mentioned them this report and they are like no but we investigate the same matter from another avenue , it is not from that report and when I went back to Brigadier Minnaar he sent this email to me to say no here is a report I have sent it to my Deputy Chief , I omitted to include you in the original one . And then I said to him can you please make sure that it immediately gets to GAR because it is critical for the current investigation .”
