Pretoria – Robert McBride will appear in the Pretoria Magistrate’s Court on Friday, facing charges of fraud and defeating the ends of justice.
The suspended head of the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (Ipid) in March claimed he was being criminally charged for his report into the illegal rendition of five Zimbabweans that former Hawks boss, Lieutenant General Anwa Dramat, and other officials were allegedly involved in.
McBride, Matthew Sesoko and Innocent Khuba were being investigated for their role in the Dramat investigation.
Dramat was accused of being involved in the illegal rendition of the five Zimbabweans in 2010. McBride was alleged to have changed an Ipid report implicating Dramat in order to protect him.
