Former minister of public enterprises Malusi Gigaba has been added as the fifth accused in the corruption case involving former Transnet executives, in which the transport utility lost billions due to irregular tenders to acquire trains.
Gigaba appeared before the Johannesburg specialised commercial crimes court in Palm Ridge on Tuesday.
The matter was postponed to January 30 2026, for disclosure of the docket, the provision of an indictment and a date for the transfer of the case to the high court.
