A Vodacom employee accused of fraud worth R1.8-million was granted bail on Friday in the Johannesburg Commercial Crimes Court. Mbokodana Khoza is alleged to have used his position as a Vodacom engineer to intercept text messages with banking details, and use that information to steal from accounts. Bail was set at R15 000. Khoza did not have a passport, and was forbidden from getting one as part of his bail requirements. He was also prohibited from communicating with his fellow Vodacom engineers, and was required to report to his local police station once a week. - IOL website
