Colonel McIntosh Polela, spokesman for the Hawks, told Afrikaans daily Beeld that they had initiated investigations against the entire CSA, including Majola, long before Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula had established the inquiry late last year.

Mbalula acted following a huge public outcry following two years of wrangling at CSA over huge IPL-2 bonuses that Majola paid to himself and other senior CSA staff without informing the board.

IPL 2 was played in South Africa in 2009 due to elections at the time in India.

An internal inquiry by CSA largely cleared Majola, but an independent inquiry by KPMG fingered him as being in breach of his fiduciary duties.
