CAPE TOWN - Public Works Minister Dean Macphearson has opened a case against Independent Development Trust CEO, Tebogo Malaka.
The suspended DTI CEO attempted to bribe a Daily Maverick journalist.
Malaka was filmed offering R60,000 to kill an investigative story into corruption at the IDT.
The Daily Maverick has been investigating an IDT contract and its links to one of Malaka’s upmarket properties.
Malaka was suspended after a forensic investigation into an oxygen plant tender worth over R800-million.
