Investigators probe acting police commissioner's fleet of luxury cars
A source close to the investigation told Timeslive that the lifestyle audit on Phahlane comes amid suspicions that he has received kickbacks from police service providers
POLICE watchdog investigators are zeroing in on the national police commissioner and a fleet of luxury cars registered in his name. The cars‚ which are said to include a Land Rover Discovery‚ a Ranger Rover Sport‚ a Toyota Hilux bakkie and a VW Amarok bakkie‚ have all drawn the very keen interest of the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (Ipid). A source close to the investigation told Timeslive that the lifestyle audit on Phahlane comes amid suspicions that he has received kickbacks from police service providers. The interest follows a raid by directorate investigators on Lieutenant-General Khomotso Phahlane's multimillion-rand Pretoria home last week.
