The former deputy head of the Hawks in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), convicted for corruption in the Durban Commercial Crimes Court, has been sentenced to eight years in prison. Simon Mzayifani Madonsela’s unit was investigating a case of a missing woman.
The court found that Madonsela asked the family of a missing woman for R40 000 to keep the docket open. He told them that his superiors wanted him to close the investigation.
