ActionSA commends the recent arrests of fourteen traffic officials in Mpumalanga, including traffic officers and a driving school operator. These arrests, which occurred in Sabie, Graskop, Lydenburg, Elukwatini, and Verena, are the result of a joint operation by the Road Traffic Management’s Anti-Corruption Unit (NTACU), the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (DPCI), and Police Crime Intelligence in Mpumalanga. This successful operation demonstrates the dedication and coordinated efforts of our law enforcement agencies.
The suspects were apprehended on charges of fraud and corruption related to the irregular issuing of driver’s licences and soliciting bribes. They are also expected to face charges under the National Road Traffic Act. These arrests send a strong message that corruption within our institutions will not be tolerated.
ActionSA fully supports the prosecution of individuals responsible for undermining the integrity of our public services. Corrupt officials not only damage the reputation of our institutions, but they also endanger the lives of motorists. When driver’s licences are fraudulently issued, the safety of all road users is compromised, leading to an increased risk of accidents.
ActionSA’s stance on corruption is clear: we maintain a zero-tolerance approach to corruption in all its forms. Corruption poses a fundamental threat to the integrity of public institutions, the delivery of essential services, and the well-being of South Africans. We advocate for accountability, transparency, justice, improved service delivery, and preventive measures to root out corruption.
We call for swift justice in this case, and we urge the public to avoid participating in corrupt activities that put lives at risk. ActionSA remains committed to ensuring that those who seek to exploit public resources through illegal means are held accountable.
Together, we can build a safer, more transparent society, free from the scourge of corruption.
