Sargento Fannie Nkosi comparece ao tribunal sob novas acusações

A polícia acrescentou novas acusações contra o sargento Fannie Nkosi por obstrução da justiça. Ele compareceu ao Tribunal de Magistrados de Thohoyandou na sexta-feira em meio a um escrutínio contínuo sobre suas conexões com um contrato de segurança em Tshwane detido por seu irmão.

As novas acusações decorrem de um caso de 2022 em Limpopo envolvendo um suspeito detido por posse de maconha, armas de fogo sem licença e explosivos. A porta-voz da polícia nacional, Athlenda Mathe, disse que Nkosi teria buscado o inquérito policial sob falsos pretextos, removido posteriormente a maconha confiscada da custódia e adulterado uma bolsa de evidências.

Nkosi já enfrenta várias acusações no Tribunal de Magistrados de Pretoria North, incluindo posse de munição sem licença e furto. Sua fiança foi negada em abril, depois que a polícia revistou sua casa e encontrou armas de fogo, munição e R52.700 em dinheiro.

Seu irmão Bheki continua detendo um contrato de segurança em Tshwane no valor de quase R3 milhões por meio da empresa Ngaphesheya, apesar de o assunto ter sido sinalizado pela Comissão Madlanga. O administrador da cidade, Johann Mettler, disse ao Parlamento esta semana que uma investigação interna está em curso.
