Vusimusi 'Cat' Matlala | Vusimuzi 'Cat' Matlala plea deal collapses

Alleged crime kingpin, Vusimusi 'Cat' Matlala's plea deal has collapsed.

Matlala has rejected the Specialised Commercial Crimes Court's proposal of 12-years in imprisonment.

He initially agreed to be jailed for 8 years after turning state witness, but the court found that to be too lenient. Matlala had pleaded guilty to charges of corruption, fraud and money laundering in the R228-million SAPS contract awarded to his company.
