## Resource

Brigadier Rachel Matjeng has been fired from the South African Police Service after being convicted of accepting bribes, money laundering, and aiding a corrupt contractor — all tied to a scandalous romance and leaked secrets that helped rig a 360-million-rand contract. Her dismissal marks the end of a high-profile career, but her legal troubles are far from over — she’s one of sixteen facing criminal charges in what’s becoming a major crackdown on police corruption.
