Cape Town - Controversial businessman and alleged underworld kingpin, Nafiz Modack, has opened criminal cases against the Hawks, who he claims tried to extort nearly R1 million from him.
Modack says he was unsure why the investigators working on the murder case of slain cop Charl Kinnear and Brian Wainstein would involve him, as he is not a suspect in the case.
Modack, who was also investigated by Kinnear, says he was contacted last December shortly before the arrest of alleged Sexy Boys boss Jerome âDonkieâ Booysen for the 2017 murder of Wainstein. He was told that if he paid the investigator R250 000, they would ensure Donkie lands in jail.
