Angelo Agrizzi corruption case set for pretrial

Agrizzi and his three co-accused, former commissioner of Correctional Services Linda Mti, the department's former CFO Patrick Gillingham and former Bosasa CFO Andries van Tonder, are linked to four contracts awarded to Bosasa worth R1.8 billion.  

The contracts were awarded to the controversial facilities management company between 2004 and 2007. 

The matter against Agrizzi has had to be separated due to his ill health.

Spokesperson for the NPA’s Investigation Directorate, Henry Mamothame, said the pretrial is to allow for all outstanding documents to be provided prior to the set date.

"The accused are facing charges of fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud, corruption, and money laundering.

"The contracts were for rendering of catering and training services, installation of CCTV cameras, perimeter fencing and the supply of television systems and monitoring equipment.”
