SIU and Transnet freeze R20 million in luxury assets amid fraud probe

SIU freezes assets linked to irregular Transnet contracts, including luxury cars, houses in Bryanston and apartments in Fourways. The item preserved through the SIU and Transnet order. Picture: Supplied. Luxury cars and high-end properties worth R20.3 million have been frozen by the Special Tribunal amid the Special Investigating Unit (SIU) investigation into irregular Transnet property valuation contracts. The SIU and Transnet announced on Friday that they have obtained a preservation order from the Special Tribunal to freeze around R20.3 million worth of movable and immovable properties. This action is part of an ongoing investigation into three allegedly irregular contracts with Transnet SOC Limited for property valuation services. The order prohibits Humphrey Tshepo Moyo, Neo Shown Matlala, MM Real Estate (Pty) Ltd, and any other parties from renting, selling, giving away, or making any changes to the frozen properties until the legal case is concluded. The preserved luxury vehicles include a Porsche 718 Boxster, a Mercedes-Benz V250d Avantgarde 3.2 T, a Volkswagen Amarok, a Toyota Hilux linked to MM Real Estate (Pty) Ltd or a linked individual, a Volkswagen Amarok linked to Moyo, a Porsche Macan S Diesel linked to Matlala, and a Mercedes-Benz C200 linked to HTM (PTY) LTD.

The order preserved several properties, including one in Broadacres Extension 11 Township, apartments in Fourways Extensions 54 and 24, an apartment in Bryanston Extension 7 linked to S Mabuza Properties (Pty) Ltd, and four office units in Vanderbijlpark linked to Ladybird Business Hive. The SIU and Transnet said the interim order follows an SIU investigation that uncovered significant irregularities in the awarding of three contracts for property valuation services to Transnet. The SIU was appointed by Transnet to investigate several questionable transactions related to Transnet Property. Totalling R89 million, the contracts were granted in 2019, 2021, and 2022. 'Serious flaws in procurement processes' 'Working closely with Transnet, the SIU's investigation revealed serious flaws in the procurement processes, raising concerns about compliance with supply chain management regulations and the possibility of undue influence in the awarding of these contracts,' stated the SIU and Transnet. Additionally, Transnet and the SIU believe that Transnet may not have received full and fair value for the money paid under the disputed contracts. NOW READ: Is Transnet another Eskom?

New Mercedes-AMG SL 63 lands in South Africa

The latest Mercedes-AMG SL 63 has arrived in South Africa, slotting in between the SL 43 and the flagship SL 63 E Performance in the marque's 2+2-seater roadster line-up. With its distinctive long bonnet, aggressively raked windscreen, short rear deck and compact overhangs, the SL 63 cuts a commanding figure that oozes presence. Lightweight 20" alloy wheels come standard, while 21" rims are available as an option. While the German drop top's menacing front end sports the firm's aero-enhancing Airpanel active air control system, the rear is fitted with a retractable rear spoiler with five different angle settings designed to either optimise handling stability or reduce drag. As with the SL 43, the SL 63 features an electronically operated folding fabric roof, which opens or closes in 15 seconds at speeds of up to 60km/h. It's also 21kg lighter than the previous-generation metal vario-roof, contributing to a lower centre of gravity. Powering the SL 63 is a 4.0 l twin-turbocharged V8 engine pumping out 430kW and 800Nm of torque. Sent to all four paws via a variable 4Matic+ all-wheel drive system and AMG Speedshift MCT 9G transmission, Affalterbach's BMW M8 Convertible rival will scorch its way from 0-100km/h in 3.6 seconds and reach a top speed of 315km/h. Complementing this straight-line shove is a capable chassis featuring a multi-link front axle with five links arranged within the rim. A similar design is found at the rear. Both ends of the SL 63 benefit from a newly developed AMG Active Ride Control suspension, while rear axle steering boosts low-speed manoeuvrability and high-speed stability. Drivers can cycle through six AMG Dynamic Select drive modes — Slippery, Comfort, Sport, Sport+, Individual and Race — using either the centre console controls or the AMG steering wheel toggles. Each mode alters the behaviour of the powertrain, transmission, steering, suspension and exhaust. Inside, the SL 63 is generously equipped. Highlights include a 12.3" digital instrument cluster, an 11.9" MBUX infotainment display on the centre console and support for the brand's AMG Performance and Track Pace apps, which allow drivers to log lap and performance data. Standard luxury features include Nappa leather seats, carbon fibre interior trim, Airscarf neck warmers, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, an AMG Performance multifunction steering wheel, adaptive cruise control and lane-keep and steering assist. Pricing for the Mercedes-AMG SL 63 starts at R3,943,156, inclusive of a five-year/100,000km service and maintenance plan.

From a Porsche to a Merc, Special Tribunal freezes R20m in assets linked to irregular Transnet contracts

From a Porsche 718 Boxster to a Mercedes-Benz V250d Avantgarde 3.2 T, Volkswagen Amarok, Toyota Hilux, Porsche Macan S Diesel and Mercedes-Benz C200, this is the list of luxury vehicles that are part of the R20.3m in assets linked to alleged irregular Transnet contracts frozen by the Special Tribunal. The Special Investigating Unit (SIU) and Transnet obtained a preservation order from the Special Tribunal to freeze around R20.3m worth of movable and immovable properties. These include luxury vehicles and high-value properties. SIU spokesperson Kaizer Kganyago said the action is part of an investigation into three allegedly irregular contracts for property valuation services with Transnet SOC Limited. He said the interim order follows an SIU investigation that uncovered significant alleged irregularities in the awarding of contracts. The order interdicts MM Real Estate, Humphrey Tshepo Moyo, Neo Shown Matlala and any other party from selling, disposing, leasing, transferring, encumbering (including by granting rights of retention), transferring, donating or dealing in any manner whatsoever to the frozen properties pending the finalisation of civil proceedings. The preserved items are the restrained properties linked to MM Real Estate, which include the Porsche 718 Boxster, a Mercedes-Benz V250d Avantgarde 3.2 T, a Volkswagen Amarok and a Toyota Hilux.
