Attorney Michael Senotse Mabunda, 42, Arrested for Alleged R10 Million RAF Fraud

 Mabunda, accused of defrauding Road Accident Fund claimants, was served with a summons in connection with a 2019 case at Pretoria North police station. As an attorney, he filed RAF claims on behalf of clients and received R10,562,173.21 into his trust account.

Mabunda appeared in Pretoria Specialized Commercial Crimes Court on 15 October 2024, and the case has been postponed to 26 November 2024, for further proceedings.
