Pretoria - A crime intelligence officer with ties to former national police commissioner Khomotso Phahlane has been arrested for allegedly defrauding the crime intelligence fund.
Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID) officials on Tuesday arrested the captain at the Department of Correctional Services in Tshwane.
"This is the start of a series of operations to deal with the theft of state resources. More arrests are expected," IPID spokesperson Moses Dlamini said.
The captain has also been allegedly linked to the R200m heist at OR Tambo International Airport that took place in March last year.
