JOHANNESBURG - The matter of suspended EMPD Chief Julius Mkhwanazi and Ekurhuleni Municipal Manager Kagiso Lerutla has been postponed to 13 July.
The pair appeared at the Boksburg Regional Court on Thursday.
They are accused of paying a third party about R400,000 to impersonate Lerutla in court.
Lerutla was due to appear on a speeding charge in 2019, but allegedly missed the court appearance to attend a job interview.
They face charges of fraud, corruption and defeating the ends of justice.
Mkhwanazi and Lerutla are both out on R30,000 bail.
Thursday’s proceedings are expected to focus on the amended charge sheets and pre-trial preparations.
