The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) secures preservation and restraint orders freezing assets worth R3.4 million linked to a Northern Cape finance clerk accused of stealing about R9 million from a Kathu high school.
The case centres on allegations that the accused allegedly misappropriates school funds over time, with the requested orders intended to prevent the assets from being dealt with during the legal process. The NPA action follows ongoing investigations and court applications related to the matter.
While the reported figure of assets frozen is R3.4 million, the broader allegation remains that the theft totals about R9 million. The available information focuses on the NPA’s efforts to secure the accused’s assets connected to the alleged offences, rather than on trial outcomes or further details of the alleged scheme.
