Assistant Commissioner Peter Sibanda, the officer commanding Operation No To Cross-Border Crime, confirmed receiving the complaint to the publication. He said: > We have seen the anonymous complaint, we are investigating the matter. The letter of complaint titled Corruption At CID DHQ Mat South reads in part: > I want to bring your attention to the corrupt activities happening at Beitbridge Border Post being done by CID DHQ details. > The DCIO is deploying DHQ details from Gwanda to lucrative points at Beitbridge Border Post on a fortnight rotational basis. > The details work at the border siphoning money from motorists/smugglers/omalayitsha just for self-aggrandisement. This has been going on for over a year now. > It is surprising to note that commanders are now the instigators of corruption instead of shunning corruption. > May your high office put an end to these corrupt activities before it gets out of hand.
