The Mpumalanga South African Social Service Agency (Sassa) has suspended two officials for their involvement in performing a ritual in a Sassa office earlier this month.

The officials and two other men were caught on CCTV cameras entering the office in Mkhondo after hours.
In the footage, one of the men is seen walking around the office holding what looked like a snake while the other is seen sprinkling liquid around the office.

Needles were found and it was suspected that muti was allegedly sprinkled on their colleagues' workstations.
Sassa spokesperson in Mpumalanga, Senzeni Ngubeni, says the two officials involved have since been suspended pending investigations.
"We have found out that two of our officials were involved in the incident. As it stands, they have been suspended. Investigation into their conduct is underway," said Ngubeni.
