Cape Town - Former provincial police commissioner Arno Lamoer and three brigadiers - Darius van der Ross, Sharon Govender and her husband Colin Govender - together with businessman Salim Dawjee are expected to appear in the Western Cape High Court on Tuesday, where they face 109 charges of corruption, racketeering, and money laundering involving R1.6 million.

In April 2015, Lamoer and the three other police officials and two local businessmen handed themselves over to police.

According to the indictment, Lamoer and police brigadiers Darius van der Ross, Kolindren Govender and Logambal “Sharon” Govender, allegedly received bribes totalling R1.6 million from Cape Town businessman and his son in exchange for special treatment.
