The FBI arrested a Canadian cybersecurity executive and ransomware expert as part of the investigation of a damaging hack that exposed the sensitive data of current and former FBI employees, according to court documents and people familiar with the investigation.
The arrests of Gauteng businessman Mpho Malema, seven Emfuleni employees and Janitha van Reenen Coetzee in separate cases are linked to allegations of corruption first brought to light by slain whistleblower Martha Mani Rantsofu.
