The former policeman allegedly received payments from Nafiz Modack and his mother in exchange for favours that advanced Modack's 'business interests'.

Dawjee, who is appealing his six-year sentence, was also in court on Thursday, apparently in support of Govender.

Modack, who is also standing trial on extortion charges in the Cape Town Regional Court, arrived at court surrounded by his standard entourage of about 10 bodyguards. He strolled into court wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the word"BOSS", an expensive suit jacket and jeans. Govender whispered to him in the dock.

Hawks spokesperson Capt Philani Nkwalase said the case was the second leg of the investigation that led to Lamoer and Govender's imprisonment.Govender was released on bail with strict conditions and was ordered to hand over his passport. State prosecutor Louis van Niekerk did not oppose bail. According to King, the case against Govender related to events between 2011 and 2013 and was unrelated to the case for which he was currently serving a sentence.
