A hacker is threatening to release sensitive documents stolen from Vusi
Pikoli's computer to the press - if the suspended National Prosecuting
Authority boss doesn't pay for their return.
Just days before Pikoli is due to fight claims that he is unfit to hold
office, the former NPA head has asked the press "not to facilitate the
commission of a crime by engaging with the hacker or any information
that he/she offers".
The Saturday Star has learnt that the anonymous hacker has not said how
much he wants in return for the documents and has indicated he is
willing to negotiate.
