The Special Investigation Unit (SIU) is looking at recovering some of the funds paid by Denel to VR Laser Services following the irregular awarding of contracts to the company.
The SIU on 3 March gave a presentation to the Standing Committee on Public Accounts (SCOPA) on its investigation into Denel.
Denel’s relationship with steel cutting and armoured vehicle fabrication specialists VR Laser Services, and the subsequent establishment of Denel Asia with VR Laser, is one of the most controversial and damaging to Denel. “It was one of the Gupta companies that was involved in Denel at the time,” SIU lead investigator Zodwa Xesibe told SCOPA.
