But it has recommended that he be charged with gross misconduct after he allegedly"failed and/or neglected to comply with [his] obligations as the lawful owner of the property and, as a result, permitted either intentionally or unknowingly the tampering of the electricity meters and non-payment of the electricity consumption for the property".
However, it also found no evidence to suggest that he tampered with or instructed an electrician to tamper with the meter.Whilst we have no evidence to suggest that either he tampered with the electricity supply or instructed that an electrician to do so, as the property owner, he is obliged to ensure compliance with all relevant legislation in relation to the property, and he failed to do so.
Badroodien, who is facing a disciplinary hearing, stepped down from his post following allegations that he tampered with an electricity meter on his property.
