Johannesburg - Transnet Freight Rail breached regulations
when it procured goods and services from consulting companies, according to a
newspaper report on Wednesday.
A forensic report compiled by auditors Nkonki found the
transgressions went unpunished costing the company millions, the Sowetan
newspaper reported.
The report revealed that senior group executives had been
involved in wrongdoing when appointing consulting companies.
It concurred with Transnet Freight Rails' chief executive
Siyabonga Gama that he was selectively disciplined.
Gama was suspended and later dismissed for breaching tender
regulations. In February last year, he was reinstated.
The forensic report was commissioned by Transnet late last
year following Public Protector Thuli Madonsela's inquiry on procurement
irregularities at the company.
The parastatal's board is scheduled to discuss the report
next week.
