The department extended its condolences to Mthunzi's family, friends and colleagues “as they navigate through this difficult period of mourning”.
He was placed on precautionary suspension in August 2022 after an investigation was launched into serious allegations concerning improper procurement and payment of service providers at Tembisa Hospital.
This came in the wake of allegedly dodgy dealings flagged by whistle-blower Babita Deokaran, who was murdered on August 23 2021.
