Probe ordered into fake licence scam

Transport Minister
Sibusiso Ndebele has
ordered an investigation
into a fake licence scam
in Johannesburg.
According to a report
in a local newspaper,
fake learners’ and
drivers’ licences are
being sold across
Johannesburg for
between R800 and
R4 500. It is claimed
that fake licences are
available at four of the
five City of Johannesburg
testing centres.
According to reports
they were primarily
organised by car guards
and instructors from “fly
by night” driving schools
who work with centre
examiners.
