Johannesburg - Criminal charges should be opened over the R1.2million in bribes allegedly received by a DA councillor in Ekurhuleni, with accusations that the party's top leadership concealed the apparent corruption. At a closed-door sitting in Germiston two weeks ago, the Ekurhuleni council resolved to lay criminal charges against DA councillor Shadow Shabangu for allegedly pocketing R1.2m in kickbacks from Blue Crane Eco Mall.

“In 2016, although Shabangu disclosed that he had earned R1.2m through consulting services, he did not disclose that these earnings were from a company that was developing a mall within Ekurhuleni and, indeed, within his jurisdiction,” read the report.
