An estate controller at the Office of the Master of the High Court is expected to appear at the Polokwane magistrate court on Tuesday afternoon.
The 53-year-old suspect was arrested earlier on Tuesday.
This is in connection with the estate fraud case involving suspended attorney Charlotte Tibana and her Tshwane traffic officer husband, Peter “Gagash” Nonyane.
Several families were defrauded of millions of rand in estate funds, allegedly through Tibana’s law firm.
Tibana and Nonyane were arrested in August and have since been denied bail.
The Hawks spokesperson, Avele Fumba, says the arrest of the officer at the Office of the Master of the High Court follows intensive investigation into alleged financial irregularities involving deceased-estate funds, which has already resulted in the arrest of attorney Charlotte Tibana and her husband Peter Gagash Tibana.
Provincial Head of the Hawks in Limpopo, Major General Gopz Govender, says they will follow the money and pursue every lead, regardless of who is involved or the position they hold.
He says they are resolute in ensuring accountability and justice.
