THE KwaZulu-Natal businessman found not guilty of tender irregularities by the Pietermaritzburg high court yesterday has blamed his business competitors for his prosecution.

Indiza Infrastructure Solution owner Jabulani Mabaso had been facing charges relating to alleged irregularities with a stationery tender for the department of education.

He was acquitted by the Pietermaritzburg high court of forgery charges relating to the alleged tender irregularities.
“We were just set up so that we could fight among ourselves,” said Mabaso after his acquittal yesterday.

Mabaso was originally charged with Pamela Bosman-Zulu on 18 counts of fraud, money laundering and forgery totalling R197 466 837, concerning the supply of stationery to the KwaZulu-Natal Education Department’s schools.

In January, charges against Bosman-Zulu, the former Education Department chief financial officer, were withdrawn.

In March, the state conceded that 12 of the counts against Mabaso would not stand.

Mabaso told The Witness that it has been a long seven years for him, his family and employees while the investigation and prosecution continued.

“Three hundred employees lost their jobs as a result of the case,” said Mabaso.

“I lost three members of my family, who were also interested in knowing the truth of this case. I am vindicated today after all these years.”

He said that his parents died without knowing the truth of the case.

Acording to Mabaso, the case had cost him about R9 million.

He said he would apply to the Asset Forfeiture Unit to release R80 million worth of his assets, including a hotel in Umhlanga Rocks, cars and houses, before the end of this week.

Mabaso was initially charged over allegations that the department had been defrauded through the fabrication and inflation of invoices from Palm Stationers at Mabaso’s request.

Acting Judge Kobus Booyens found that there was not enough evidence to prove that his actions, and those of his company, had prejudiced the department.

“The state submitted there was potential prejudice against SARS and Palm Stationers,” he said.

“In my view, the potential prejudice is speculative.

“It is difficult to see how the falsification could have prejudiced Palm [Stationers].

“The state did not succeed in proving that,” said Booyens.

Indiza procured stationery and supplied it to schools.

After his acquittal today, Mabaso said the marathon trial had cost him about R9 million.

He would now apply to the Asset Forfeiture Unit to release R80 million worth of assets, including a hotel in Umhlanga Rocks and houses.

Judgment is to be heard at the Pietermaritzburg High Court on Tuesday in the fraud case of KwaZulu-Natal businessman Jabulani Mabaso.

It was alleged that Mabaso and his company, Indiza Infrastructure Solutions, defrauded the Department of Education of R200 million between 2005 and 2007. Mabaso supplied stationery for schools and allegedly inflated the prices.

However, the State then made an about-turn, conceding that Mabaso was entitled to make a profit on the stationery, and dropped the charges.

Mabaso was also charged with fraud and forgery, allegedly for not passing on discounts to the department and for producing fake invoices.

The State is pursuing a conviction on these charges.

Arguing on Monday, prosecutor Wendy Greef said invoices were created by Paul de Villiers and Gillian Broughton in 2007, who were employees of Mabaso at all the relevant times.

Greef submitted that in the case of forgery, a fraudulent perversion of the truth came into existence as soon as a falsified document was made. This, she argued, had been prejudicial to Palm Stationers, the supplier that Indiza used.

The evidence of De Villiers was that he had forged the first of two falsified Palm Stationers invoices on the instructions of Mabaso.

Greef said the obvious reason for the forgeries would have been to avoid paying tax.

Willie Vermeulen SC, applied for Mabaso’s acquittal. He said the State had failed to establish any financial prejudice to the department or Palm Stationers.

“This has been a waste of time.”
