Nathi Nhleko's former chief of staff facing fraud charges
DURBAN - A former senior government employee, who once had a security clearance that allowed him access to some of the country’s top-secret information, has found himself on the wrong side of the law. Leon Abednigo Mbangwa, 55, appeared in the Durban Specialised Commercial Crime Court on charges of fraud on Tuesday.
Mbangwa appeared in court after he was summoned to appear by the Hawks’ Serious Commercial Crime Investigation unit, said Mhlongo, after the investigation pertaining to his credentials was concluded recently. Mbangwa admitted to having spent some time in Pretoria Central Prison for fraud. He was released in August 2003.
Listed as a general manager in the provincial Health Department from January 2005 to September 2010, Mbangwa’s LinkedIn profile listed him as a department spokesperson in charge of stakeholder management, events, policy formulation processing, financial management and bid evaluation committee member.
