The trio were part of a selection panel that was responsible for conducting interviews and recommending candidates for advertised positions in 2016.
Three South African Police Service (SAPS) generals, including two retired and one serving, have been accused of corruption by the country's Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID), reports TimesLive.
The trio were part of a selection panel that was responsible for conducting interviews and recommending candidates for advertised positions in 2016.
The IPID alleges that the generals conspired to manipulate the scoresheets, leading to the appointment of a different candidate and unjustly disadvantaging the deserving candidate.
The three generals are scheduled to appear at a Magistrate's court to face the charges.
