Former Ekurhuleni city manager Imogen Mashazi has been instructed to present herself to police as part of an investigation into corruption and malfeasance within the municipality.

This follows the arrest of suspended head of legal Kemi Behari, marking the second senior official linked to the embattled Ekurhuleni metropolitan municipality to face legal action.

The Madlanga commission task team has secured four arrest warrants, with two additional officials—formerly a top law enforcement officer and a senior manager who testified at the commission—expected to be arrested by Thursday.The developments underscore ongoing efforts to address systemic corruption in the municipality, which has faced repeated scandals.

The arrests highlight the prioritization of accountability in public institutions, though the broader implications for governance and transparency remain under scrutiny.

The case also reflects the challenges of enforcing legal consequences in politically sensitive environments, as officials navigate the balance between institutional integrity and personal accountability.
