Norma Mngoma Gigaba, the wife of former finance minister Malusi Gigaba, will spend the weekend behind bars, so says the Hawks.
“This is a Hawks matter because there is more to it than people think, but we will not ventilate that at this stage.
“This matter was referred to us and there has been an investigation. This is only one part of the investigation, there are other serious matters to the investigation,” he said. Earlier, a source close to the Gigaba family told Independent Media that Norma had been arrested at the couple’s Pretoria home.“She is going to be in police custody because a warrant of arrest was issued. She will appear at the Hatfield Magistrates Court on Monday,” he said.
