Western Cape Premier Alan Winde has confirmed a losing bidder has sought to legally challenge the province's decision to award a R282-million tender to controversial Durban businessman Roy Moodley. | MarvinCharles_

A losing bidder has taken the Western Cape government to court to challenge the decision to award a tender to controversial businessman Roy Moodley.Premier Alan Winde says the danger is if no urgent intervention takes place, state capture and the tentacles of organised crime will reach deeper into government.

Winde said the criminal justice system had failed by not prosecuting glaring cases of alleged corruption, mainly emanating from the Commission of Inquiry into State Capture. The contract was awarded to Royal Security for security services for a period of two years at properties owned by the provincial government, the publication's Scorpio investigative unit reported.He resigned as a member of the closed corporation in 2015. Moodley's son, Magesh, has been listed as the entity's sole member.
