Khehla Sitole says ‘Captain KGB’ did not draw a salary while in jail
National police commissioner Lt-Gen Khehla Sitole on Friday maintained that, despite reports to the contrary, Morris "Captain KGB" Tshabalala was not drawing a salary from the police while in jail and that his employment with the police had been terminated in 2016. Questions emerged about corruption among the police, with reporters asking whether former crime intelligence officer Tshabalala was in the employ of the police and drawing a salary while in jail. It was reported last week that Tshabalala had been dismissed from South African Police Service (SAPS). He is currently behind bars after as bail application was denied and faces charges of defrauding the SAPS of more than R500,000.
