Directorate of Intelligence and Security (DIS) director general, Isaac Kgosi has told the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) that although his organisation has been directed to pay back the P250 million to the National Petroleum Fund (NPF), he does not know where the money will come from.

Kgosi who was subpoenaed to give evidence before the PAC reviewing the NPF P250 million money laundering scandal, admitted that his organisation was allowed to divert the money to buy security equipment instead of setting up the strategic fuel storage facilities as initially planned, but was aware until February this year that the then Acting Deputy Permanent Secretary Obolokile Obakeng had withdrawn that approval.

When asked by a member of the committee, Samson Moyo Guma if he was aware of the decision by Cabinet directing that DIS should return the money, Kgosi chose to be evasive, only responding by saying that he did not sit in Cabinet meetings and did not attend Cabinet meetings.

Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
