Episode Details

Peet Viljoen, facing 400 charges including fraud and theft, allegedly swindled 27 million rand by forging documents to sell 46 city-owned properties in 2010 — and paid off a land registrar to grease the wheels. The scheme was uncovered during a city audit, leading to arrests and court orders to reclaim assets. After briefly fleeing South Africa in May, he was caught at OR Tambo Airport upon deportation from the U.S. Now back in custody at Kgosi Mampuru Prison, his bail hearing is set for June 26th — and prosecutors are ready to fight any release.
