The Cape Town leader of the Independent Democrats, Simon Grindrod, has called on Crime Expo SA website founder Neil Watson to explain the situation surrounding the closure of the site.
"Now that I have pressed charges at Caledon Square Police Station, it would save the Commercial Crimes Unit considerable resources if Mr Watson would come forward and explain what he has done with the money," said Grindrod.
Senior Superintendent Billy Jones has confirmed that a charge of fraud has been laid.
The Crime Expo SA site has been suspended and is apparently being investigated by an Internet monitoring authority for carrying racist and offensive comments
"It is a scandal that someone is able to capitalise on the highly emotive issue of crime and then simply pocket money donated by the public in good faith," said Grindrod.
