Forster Bonga, from Athlone, allegedly stole $24 483 for his personal use. The case was exposed after the organisation conducted an internal audit.
Prosecutor Andrew Marimo told the court that between March 2011 and January 2012, Bonga made cash sales to customers and issued invoice receipts.
Instead of banking the money, he pocketed it. The manager then claimed the goods were purchased on credit.
An audit revealed
that Bonga’s account was in arrears.
It was also discovered that the transactions were sometimes done three times or four times a day, which raised suspicions.
Bonga is denying the charge. Magistrate Sithembinkosi Msipa deferred the case to July 1.
