Katlholo wins first round

This is seemingly one of the biggest turf wars in the land by two powerful security organs, the Directorate on Corruption and Economic Crime (DCEC) and the Directorate of Intelligence and Security (DIS) supervised by the Office of the President (OP). Interestingly, the turf wars have precedence. Previously, there were incursions between the DCEC and the DIS when Rose Seretse was at the helm of the DCEC with the pioneering DIS director-general, Isaac Kgosi’s team incessantly raiding the graft-busting agency in search of certain files that amongst others implicated the then DIS head.

In one instance, the DCEC purely investigated the DIS DG, Kgosi on allegations of corruption and money laundering amongst others. The unrelenting DCEC kept the DIS at bay at the time, but the turf wars have always been dirty and murky.
