Heads to roll at DCEC, DPP :: Mmegi Online

The man at the helm of the Directorate on Corruption and Economic Crime’s (DCEC), Tymon Katlholo has been vindicated on his dismissal of the P100 billion ‘Butterfly’ case. Katholo, one of the pioneers of the DCEC who made a return to the entity 12 months ago, has long said the case was not air tight and he is not surprised Wilheminah 'Butterfly' Maswabi walked free. He has since said they would do as the court has ordered.

Contacted for comment, Katlholo said they maintain what they always said as the DCEC and would act on the court order. “We have always made it clear that there was no sufficient evidence to prosecute the matter,” he said in a brief interview. On what action he would take to those implicated under his supervision, Katlholo said: "We will abide by the court order".

The turn of events could mean that Hubona and Israel will face disciplinary action from their principal.
