Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi has appointed Roche Mogorosi as acting Head of Department (HOD) for the provincial Community Safety Department.
Current HOD Nontsikelelo Sisulu and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Mduduzi Malope were placed on immediate suspension earlier this week, following the conclusion of a forensic investigation, which uncovered alleged financial irregularities in the department.
