A senior SANDF officer has appeared in the Pretoria magistrate’s court on allegations of trying to bribe a police officer.
The state alleged that Brig-Gen Johannes Prince Mkhabela, director of special acquisition for the SANDF, tried to bribe a police investigator to quash another case which was opened against him in January 2026.
“The accused directly or indirectly gave or agreed to give a gratification of R1.5m,” read the charge sheet.
Mkhabela was arrested on Friday.
