JOHANNESBURG - Correctional Services Minister Pieter Groenewald says the contract with G4 Security is still running.
In May last year, the department issued a termination notice following the escape of Thabo Bester from the Mangaung Correctional Centre.
However, in a surprise turn of events, the Minister has confirmed that the company is still running that prison.
At the same time, Groenewald says some officers involved in the Bester escape, were moved to other departments.
