Disgraced former Sunday Times political journalist Ranjeni Munusamy appears to have found a new home in the office of the Minister of Finance, Tito Mboweni.

Some Twitter users questioned how Mboweni could employ Munusamy, who, according to testimony by police investigator Colonel Kobus Roelofse at the state capture commission in September last year, unduly benefited from the rampant abuse of the crime intelligence slush fund.

Roelofse was investigating the abuse which allegedly happened under Richard Mdluli’s watch when he got information that around 2008, Munusamy ran into financial difficulties. As a result, money from the fund was used to pay off a vehicle debt of R143 621.78 to WesBank Vehicle Finance.One of the people who expressed shock that Mboweni had employed the former journalist was EFF deputy president Floyd Shivambu, who wondered what had happened to her case.

“What happened to the people unlawful money she received and couldn’t challenge through a legal process? ,” Shivambu tweeted. Also boggled by the news was former eNCA journalist turned Numsa spokesperson Phakamile Hlubi-Majola, who said: “Ranjeni Munusamy has not been cleared of allegations of corruption. She refused to go to the Zondo Commission to defend herself. Inspite of this youMunusamy has yet to respond to questions sent to her by Independent Media on Wednesday morning. Also, it was still not clear whether Munusamy was employed in the treasury department or in Mboweni's ministerial office.

A whole spy in office,

First time I rad this, I swear it said 'Ranjeni Msunery'😂😂😂😅😅

Perfect picture for the story.... 😂🤣🇿🇦 She done made it ALL YHE WAY UP😅🤣🤣🤣🤣

SA and its government officials are a joke, they keep on hiring tainted individuals when we are here as unemployed graduates.

I have always have this. Journalists are trained to sell news and dig them. PR/Comms are trained to promote and protect the image of the Department but most Government Departments employ Journalists. They sometimes leak the information to their former colleagues

As thick as thieves.

but guys she is beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰😂😒🙈

mxo1 Must be nice in SA

What a headline damn.

The ANC government has 26 years of expertise in recycling kak! They call it redeployment. It's to a large extent the reason why South Africa is increasingly becoming a failed state.

Sies! Her appointment must be put on hold until she can clear her name. Isn't that the rules of the ANC? And look where she's wiggling herself in. Treasury of all places. In the name of speech writing.
