Ex-promotor é condenado a sete anos por corrupção

Siphokazi Magangana, um ex-promotor, foi condenado a sete anos de prisão após confessar crimes de corrupção e lavagem de dinheiro. A sentença foi proferida pelo Tribunal Regional de Roodepoort em decorrência de uma oferta feita em 2022.

Siphokazi Magangana foi condenado a sete anos de prisão pelo Tribunal Regional de Roodepoort por corrupção e lavagem de dinheiro. Ele se declarou culpado das acusações.

Em agosto de 2022, enquanto trabalhava no escritório da Autoridade Nacional de Promotoria em Joanesburgo, Magangana abordou uma denunciante no Clearwater Shopping Mall. Ele ofereceu conseguir a ela um emprego como promotora pública em troca de R$ 10 000.

O porta-voz da NPA, Magaboke Mohlatlole, reagiu à sentença. Ele afirmou que a corrupção dentro do sistema de justiça criminal enfraquece o Estado de Direito e corrói a confiança pública nas instituições estatais. A NPA permanece comprometida em garantir a responsabilização de funcionários que abusam de cargos de confiança.
