SANDF clerk pleads guilty to R1.1m fraud
A senior SANDF administration clerk yesterday pleaded guilty to 251 charges of defrauding her employer.
Zelda Wolmarans, of Clubview, admitted in the Pretoria specialised commercial crimes court that she had helped herself to more than R1.1 million over several years until her arrest in April 2006.
Wolmarans was a civilian working for the SANDF.
Part of her duties was to key in information on the SANDF’s salary system.
She captured false information on the salary system and approved payments for reserve force members, of which some did not even do duty.
She then had these payments paid into her own bank accounts.
Magistrate Dawie Jacobs found her guilty as charged.
The case was postponed to July 7 for pre-sentencing reports.
Wolmarans’ bail of R20 000 was extended. Her two children and three stepchildren were arrested with her, but the charges against them were later withdrawn.
