Man acquitted on insulting charges

Reetsang Mathambo, a former employee of the Directorate on Corruption and Economic Crime (DCEC) is said to have hauled insults and all kinds of obscenities at his former colleague Seele Mabuza who went to his house to collect imprest money, as instructed by his superiors.

Senior Magistrate Thato Mujaji said that she did not feel that the state had "proven its case beyond reasonable doubt". She said that as far as she was concerned the employees of the DCEC could have been trying to fix each other.
