Durban woman arrested for alleged Covid Ters fraud
A Durban woman is out on bail after she was nabbed this week in connection with fraud relating to the COVID-19 Temporary Employee Relief Scheme.
40-year-old Nokuthula Ntuli appeared in the Durban Commercial Crimes Court yesterday.
It's alleged that Ntuli received just over half a million rand in 2021 from a company called Sandy and Sissy.

The company's director allegedly claimed the COVID-19 TERS funds on behalf of various companies and shared the money with her accomplices.
The company's director was arrested in 2021 and is out on R100 000 bail.
Ntuli was granted R20 000 bail in court and will reappear with the company's director in November this year.
The Hawks say more arrests are expected soon.
