Summary:

The Special Investigating Unit (SIU) has been granted a preservation order by the Special Tribunal to freeze approximately R2.4 million held in four bank accounts linked to a National Lotteries Commission (NLC) official and his wife. The funds were allegedly misused and transferred from non-profit organizations that received funding from the NLC to the officials' personal bank accounts. The SIU investigation found that the official, Sibonelo Vilakazi, and his wife, Nosipho Zanele Zuma, received large sums of money from care centers and football clubs in KwaZulu-Natal after the NLC granted them funding. The SIU has been authorized to investigate allegations of corruption and maladministration in the affairs of NLC and to recover any financial losses suffered by the State.
