Mike Roussos, former CE of Gauteng Shared Services Centre (GSSC), was arrested yesterday on allegations of fraud and corruption relating to an amount of R4.6m.
A Moneyweb report says he appeared in the Specialised Commercial Crimes Court and was released on bail of R3 000. A police spokesperson confirmed that Roussos\' arrest was related to Awaken Consulting and Trading (Pty) Ltd, a company that was apparently a beneficiary of GSSC contracts worth R4.6m. In a statement read by his Advocate, Roussos said he was sure that the State\'s allegations were baseless and that its case against him must be very weak. Full Moneyweb report
