This emerged on Monday as prosecutor Tilas Chabalala told the Johannesburg commercial crimes court, sitting at the Palm Ridge magistrate's court, that the state was ready to set the matter down for trial.

Zakwe said the matter was not ready for trial because there is no proper disclosure of all the documents in the docket. He said some of the documents contained on a hard drive could not be opened. He said the disclosure of the docket was haphazard and unstructured.

The court said there must be a proper exchange of papers and set the matter down to November 25 for hearing. The charges relate to a multimillion-rand tender which Vimpie Manthata's company, Instrumentation for Traffic Law Enforcement, was awarded to fit emergency lights to police vehicles. Apart from Manthata, Phahlane and Mgwenya, the other accused are former Gauteng police commissioner Deliwe de Lange, former Gauteng deputy police commissioner Nombhuruza Lettie Napo, James Ramanjalum, Ramahlapi Johannes Mokwena, Thomas Marima, Maetapese Joseph Mulaiwa, Judy Rose, Samantha Andrews and Instrumentation for Traffic Law Enforcement.
