In another incident, 15 men are facing 84,000 charges of fraud, forgery and theft, among others.

Thirty women are expected to appear at the Botshabelo Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday on charges of fraud. The women were allegedly undeserving Sassa beneficiaries who were applying for government grants.

“She would allegedly charge them any amount ranging from R200 for the service. Various fraudulent documents and stamps were found at her house. It is alleged that this woman made [an] unsuspecting victim to believe that she was a doctor’s assistant who was authorised with performing these duties while the doctor was on leave,” said the SAPS.
