Former Ditsobotla CFO arrested for fraud
Updated | By Mapaballo Borotho
The Hawks in North West have arrested the former CFO of the Ditsobotla local municipality on charges of fraud totalling R460,000.

Radikashu Tsie’s arrest follows an investigation into allegations of fraud in procuring legal practitioner services for Ditsobotla Local Municipality.
He briefly appeared before the Lichtenburg Magistrate's court on Wednesday and was released on R5,000 bail.
Hawks spokesperson in the province, Tinyiko Mathebula, said Tsie is expected back in court in October.
"Investigation revealed that in May 2021, Tsie and his co-accused Thouret Mampe Thabe Tiro, the director of Tiro Attorneys (PTY) LTD and Tsietsi Isaac Shema, the former acting director of Corporate Services at the Ditsobotla Local Municipality, connived to defraud the municipality of over R460,000 for services which were never rendered. Tiro and Shema were arrested last week.
"It was uncovered during the investigation that Tiro Attorneys submitted invoices to the municipality for legal services he claimed to have rendered. Tsie and Shema reportedly approved payment for services that were never rendered. The trio is facing four counts of fraud and an alternative theft charge.”
Tiro and Shema were granted R8,000 bail each.
