Hawks spokesperson, Hangwani Mulaudzi, says these are the Gauteng branch in Sandton and the Durban branch in Kwazulu-Natal.

 

"We are of the view that the bank was used as a channel for illicit funds from state-owned enterprises to private individuals and companies," says Mulaudzi.

 

Mulaudzi says the aim of Friday’s operations was to seize documents including electronic equipment to enhance ongoing investigations.
