PRETORIA - The state capture commission has heard how Transnetpaid a Gupta-linked shelf company R36 million for one day of work.

It emerged at the commission that the job had already been completed by a Transnet employee. This was among the submissions made by chartered accountant Gerhard van der Westhuizen, who testified about numerous irregularities related to contracts between the state-owned company and Neotel.

Van der Westhuizen said he led and concluded negotiations with Neotel on 13 December 2014 but later discovered a contract with a company called Homix, whose services commenced a day earlier.

Evidence leader Veruschka September confirmed the timeline with the witness.

“To an extent that R36 million was paid for services contracted from Homix on 13 December 2014. Would it be correct to say that R36 million would relate to but one day of work?”

Van der Westhuizen answered: “It does appear that way, yes.”

September closed proceedings with the question being explored during these hearings related to Transnet.

“Whether or not a parallel system was indeed at play at the time that these transactions took place, a parallel system was augmented by the higher echelons of the organisation to corroborate the outside of the procurement process to facilitate these transactions.”

Activist against farm attacks murdered on her Limpopo farm

NO FEAR NO FAVOUR NO CAPTURE..........

CITIZEN REPORTER

Annette Kennealy was brutally attacked and murdered and police are currently looking for an employee who has disappeared following the incident.

Annette Kennealy, a vocal activist against farm murders, has been brutally killed on her farm in Makhado, Limpopo, News24 reports.

The incident took place late either on Monday evening or early on Tuesday morning on the Welgevonden farm, according to TimesLive.

Limpopo police spokesperson Colonel Moatshe Ngoepe confirmed the murder.

“It is alleged that the deceased, Annette Kennealy, who was staying with her employee, was attacked by unknown suspects at this farm. The family members tried to call her without success, until one of them went to investigate,” he said.

“On arrival he found the deceased inside the house lying in a pool of blood, with multiple stab wounds. The whereabouts of the deceased’s employee is unknown at this stage.”

Ngoepe adds that police are now looking for the employee, identified as Kenny Ramatshimbila.

It has been requested that Ramatshimbila, who has reportedly disappeared since the murder took place, reports to the Makhado police station for questioning.

Maroela Media reports that Kennealy’s body was found with several wounds to her head. A hammer and iron pipe were reportedly found beside her body.

Kennealy was known as an activist against farm murders. Her last Facebook post served to highlight what was described as a “sudden spike” in farm attacks in the past week.
