The Directorate on Intelligence and Security DIS faces accusations of attempting to unlawfully deduct over P1.5 million from its employees' salaries. The DIS allegedly claimed these deductions were for legal fees owed to their former attorney, Kgosietsile Ngakaagae and his firm Ngakaagae and Company. At least 137 employees reportedly received letters detailing these deductions, totaling P1,548,305.50. This accusation is part of a court case where 137 DIS employees are accusing Director General Peter Magosi of contempt of court. This follows an earlier payment by Magosi and the DIS of P7.4 million, instead of the P10.2 million, in salary/allowance arrears to 106 employees involved in a case before the Intelligence and Security Services Tribunal.
