DENIED BAIL | The Mokopane Magistrates’ Court has denied bail to Mogalakwena Local Municipality Municipal Manager Morris Maluleke (43). Maluleke appeared in court on 16 October 2026 for his formal bail application. The application was opposed by Senior State Advocates Martin Molokwane and Netshianda, Advocates Muligi and Mutshaeni, and State Advocate Nzimande. The State argued that Maluleke faces serious charges of fraud, corruption and money laundering. It further submitted that he may interfere with witnesses and ongoing investigations, and that his release on bail would not be in the interests of justice at this stage. The court upheld the State’s submissions and denied Maluleke bail. He failed to discharge, on a balance of probabilities, the onus to show that he should be admitted to bail. Maluleke was arrested on 7 October 2026, together with his company, Bona Cord Vulstasie, in connection with allegations of fraud, corruption and money laundering arising from a municipal fleet management contract. The State alleges that Maluleke initially approved a fleet contract valued at approximately R4 million and later authorised payments totalling R24 million, allegedly resulting in substantial financial loss to the municipality. The State further alleges that, in December 2022, Maluleke irregularly awarded a R24 million fleet tender to Fleetmove (Pty) Ltd without following the prescribed supply chain management processes. Although payments allegedly began in January 2023, services were only rendered between April and May 2023, after the municipality’s Legal Division threatened to terminate the contract. The investigation also uncovered allegations that payments totalling R230 000, which the State believes were kickbacks, were made into an account linked to Maluleke through a company of which he is the sole director. The matter has been postponed to 3 November 2026 for further investigation. Maluleke remains in custody.

Nelson Mandela studied LLB at Wits, below are his results.

In some cases, when business owners shut down their operations because of extortion, the very same extortionists return with an offer to finance the reopening of those businesses. The criminals provide the capital, gain control of the business and reduce the original owner to an employee in what was once their own establishment. This is particularly common in small businesses that sell alcohol and food.

We tried to break up with you. Our relationship is one sided. Very toxic. But we can't imagine life without you😭😭😭😭💔 #Amakhosi4Life

Unfortunately, as you get older, you gradually become less interested in new music and keep going back to the old favorite songs you once loved.
