LIMPOPO HAWKS ARREST BANK CONSULTANT FOR MULTI-MILLION RAND FRAUD 

An intelligence driven operation between the Hawks’ Serious Commercial Crime Investigation team, SAPS-Waterval members and Absa forensic investigators has resulted in the arrest of a 27-year-old Absa bank consultant for alleged fraud of R25 million in Elim on Friday.

It is alleged that the suspect stole R25 million from the Provincial Government accounts and deposited it into different accounts that he had opened. 

Despite the clandestine efforts by the suspect, the team painstakingly managed to trace and freeze the complex web of the bank accounts linked to him.
