A former executive of Cell C was on Friday remanded in custody by the Palm Ridge Commercial Crimes Court following his arrest on Wednesday for alleged fraud and corruption amounting to an estimated R64 million.
Hawks spokesperson, Captain Lloyd Ramovha, said Mohamed Ismail Adamjee, 44, was an IT exec at the mobile network provider.
“It is alleged that during the period 2012 to 2019, he colluded with a director of a contracted entity responsible for IT and network services at his workplace. They reportedly inflated invoices which resulted in an actual loss of over R64 million to Cell C.
