Hawks still hunting one in Eskom fraud probe of missing R14 million
Two more suspects have been arrested and appeared alongside Thandeka Innocentia Nkosi, an Eskom Matla Power Station employee, who was arrested on charges of fraud related to more than R14 million siphoned from the money coffers of the embattled power supplier.
During a recent Hawks probe it was discovered that during March to April 2013, Nkosi, who was employed by Eskom at Arnot Power Station as a Senior Buyer, colluded with another accused, a director of Angel Frost Investment (PTY) Ltd.
The newly charged suspects were released on R100 000 bail alongside Nkosi and another.
A 71-year old co-accused received R30 000 bail.
They all appeared in the Hendrina Magistrates Court yesterday.
A sixth suspect is still on the run.
The next court date has been set down for May 5.
