Prasa suspends 12 on ‘gross misconduct’ allegations

The embattled, state-owned Passenger Rail Agency of SA , which was placed under administration in December, has suspended 12 senior officials for allegations of gross misconduct emanating from various investigations.

“This action is consistent with the mandate given to Prasa administrator Bongisizwe Mpondo when he took office in December of 2019. Among other responsibilities, Mpondo has the task of “ensuring effective consequence management and provide support to investigations currently underway by law enforcement authorities”, Prasa said in a statement.

Prasa, which has implemented five turnaround strategies since its creation, is among state-owned enterprises dogged by governance, operational and financial challenges, due to state capture, which cost SA an estimated R500bn.
