'Stolen coffee machine': Warrant Officer Sander's campaign reaches R656,064 milestone
Warrant Officer Karl Sander's fundraising campaign has successfully raised R656,06
A campaign supporting Warrant Officer Karl Sander has reached a significant milestone, raising R656,064 for the officer. Kyle van Reenen, who initiated the campaign, stated that the funds were processed correctly and transparently through BackaBuddy. Sander, a senior investigator at the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (DPCI) in KwaZulu-Natal, testified at the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry regarding the theft of over 500 kilograms of cocaine from the Port Shepstone Hawks office in November 2021.
He humorously mentioned having to undergo a polygraph after his coffee machine was stolen from inside the DPCI, which he also wanted back. Van Reenen emphasized that the campaign was initially about more than just replacing a coffee machine; it aimed to show support for Sander, who has dedicated his life to serving the country. The funds raised so far reflect the strong public response, with supporters donating, sharing the campaign, and offering messages of encouragement.
The organizers plan to allocate the funds appropriately, and further updates will be provided while maintaining transparency throughout the process.
