The Special Investigating Unit (SIU) welcomes the judgment of the High Court of South Africa: Gauteng Division, Johannesburg, which dismissed an application brought by Caledon River Properties Pty Ltd and Profteam CC to appeal a decision of the Special Tribunal to strip them of profits earned from the construction of a border mesh fence during Covid-19 pandemic.
Soon after the fence was erected in March 2020, it started to fall apart. In July 2020, President Cyril Ramaphosa authorised SIU through Proclamation No. R. 23 of 2020, to investigate the affairs of all State institutions in respect of the procurement or contracting for goods, works and services, during, or in respect of the National State of Disaster, by or on behalf of State institutions. The Proclamation prompted the SIU to investigate the awarding of contracts to Caledon River Properties Pty Ltd and Profteam CC.
