Perfect Source was a human resources and recruitment company. The sole director of perfect source was Gevani Naidoo. Her husband, Avendra, provided the other quote Kistiah needed.<\/p>\n<p>The procurement was driven by Mahwayi, who in his role had no authority for procurement. He sourced the quotations and, within two days, R33 million landed in Kistiah\u2019s bank account, with no contract or agreement in place.<\/p>\n<p>According to investigators from the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID), who first pursued the probe after they were alerted by a whistleblower, could find no evidence that the RIPJAR software was ever delivered.<\/p>\n<p>Several months later, Crime Intelligence looked to I-View and Kistiah to provide phone encryption software called Deadelus for R21 million. Similarly, Mahwayi obtained two quotes from the same two companies, and I-View secured their second windfall.<\/p>\n<p>Both deals bear the hallmarks of cover quoting, a collusive practice where the prices of counter-quotations are inflated to ensure that the deal goes to a predetermined recipient.<\/p>\n<p>Sources within IPID, who could not be named, alleged that the Deadelus system was purchased in order to shield Phahlane from their investigators, who were hot on his heels over a mammoth blue light tender. Phahlane and other top cops face criminal charges for this scheme and are currently before court.<\/p>\n<p><b>Criminal intelligence<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Kistiah and Avendra Naidoo were arrested in Durban and Gqeberha respectively. The former was said to have been boarding a plane, the destination of which could not be independently confirmed.<\/p>\n<p>Kistiah is central in a string of IPID investigations into high-level police corruption which have since been ceded to the ID.<\/p>\n<p>Another dubious deal pushed Kistiah\u2019s way was the purchase of a sophisticated spying device known as a grabber, which can intercept calls and infiltrate cellular phones. I-View was to provide such a device at R45 million, several times more than what it is worth, just days before the ANC\u2019s 2017 Nasrec elective conference.<\/p>\n<p>The deal was abandoned after pressure from IPID sleuths, who insisted that the splurge was in fact a money laundering scheme which would see cash from the Crime Intelligence slush fund used to bribe voting delegates at the conference.<\/p>\n<p>This scandal haunted former top cop Khehla Sitole for the entirety of his tenure and contributed to his axing earlier this year. This over his refusal to declassify evidence needed by IPID to conclude their investigations.<\/p>\n<p>Sitole and two other top generals were found to have intentionally withheld information of a crime, in breach of their duties as police officers.<\/p>\n<p>The six are expected to appear in the Pretoria Commercial Crimes Court on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-africa\">South-Africa<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
