News24.com | LIVE: MultiChoice will not renew contract with ANN7
Multichoice to reveal the outcome of investigation
Multichoice will hold a media briefing on Wednesday to reveal the outcome of their internal investigation into several payments made to the SABC and ANN7. The payments were allegedly made to influence government policy on digital migration in favour of Multichoice.
It emerged through the Gupta Leaks last year that the video entertainment and internet company paid ANN7 millions to allegedly influence South Africa’s long-stalled digital migration switch from analogue to digital TV.
MultiChoice then launched an internal probe into the matter, led by its audit and risk committees. The findings are to be made to the board, which will then take necessary action, the company said in a statement in early November. The DA had lodged a complaint with Icasa on November 27, 2017.
The DA also requested MultiChoice make publicly available the contracts with ANN7 and the SABC, according to the letter sent to Icasa. Icasa chair Rubben Mohlaloga responded to the DA’s request on January 26, 2018 in a letter. Mohlaloga said in the letter that the complaint was referred to its Compliance and Consumer Affairs division “to investigate and communicate with the DA directly.”
Mohlaloga also said that the parties concerned will have to be provided with the complaint as well as other relevant attachments, and be given an opportunity to respond to the allegations within a specified period.

News24.com | Court finds that driver who crashed into Simba Mhere fabricated evidence
Johannesburg – Magistrate David Mahango poked holes in the defence of convicted criminal Preshalin Naidoo who was found guilty of culpable homicide in the death of Top Billing presenter Simba Mhere in a car crash.
Naidoo was found guilty on two counts of culpable homicide as well as negligent and reckless driving.
In his judgment on Wednesday at the Randburg Magistrate’s Court, Mahango rejected Naidoo’s entire defence.
“The court finds that the version of the accused that he suffered mechanical failure is far-fetched. There is no hesitation in concluding that the accused has fabricated his defence.”
During Mahango’s ruling Naidoo kept his head down, making little eye contact with the magistrate. His mother, who was seated on the front bench, was emotional, often shedding tears and closing her eyes.
Mhere’s sister, Valerie, often wiped her eyes as Mahango described how her brother had died. The presenter’s mother, Angela, sat silently next to his father, Joseph, and kept her eyes closed during judgment.
The family of three were surrounded by Naidoo’s family and friends, whose numbers dominated the courtroom.
37 incidents of exceeding speed limit
Some family members tried to block photographers from taking photographs of Naidoo before court was in session.
During his ruling Mahango dismissed Naidoo’s version of events that he was travelling at 61km/h at the time of the collision.
Naidoo’s car tracker had recorded 37 incidents of exceeding the required speed limit. Minutes before the accident, Naidoo had been travelling at 210km/h.
However, Naidoo’s defence argued that he was travelling at 61km during the time of impact. He also blamed mechanical failure for the accident.
“If the accused was driving at 61km, he was going to able to apply brakes as IBF Investigations South Africa chief reconstruction expert Stanley Bezuidenhout argued,” he said.
However, Mahango said Bezuidenhout’s testimony as an expert witness for the defence was not credible.
State’s case proven ‘beyond doubt’
He questioned his motives for attending court while State witnesses were on the stand, adding that this gave Bezuidenhout an advantage.
He said that Bezuidenhout’s inspection of Naidoo’s car months after the accident “demonstrated bias on the part of his evidence”.
“There was no evidence that suggests the vehicle was not tempered with before inspection,” Mahango said.
He found that the state had proved its case beyond a reasonable doubt. State witnesses were also found to have delivered credible testimony.
National Prosecuting Authority spokesperson Phindi Mjonondwane said that the State was happy that the court was in agreement that Naidoo had acted negligently and without consideration of other road users.
Naidoo’s bail has been approved until March 9 for sentencing.

CAPE TOWN – Disgraced global retail group Steinhoff is appearing before Parliament on Wednesday.
MPs want details on accounting irregularities in Steinhoff’s financial statements.
FSB has registered two possible cases of insider trading. #Steinhoff
— Aarti Narsee (@ajnarsee) January 31, 2018
FSb says that possible penalty for #Steinhoff is not set, could be higher than R100 million.
— Aarti Narsee (@ajnarsee) January 31, 2018
FSB has over the last ten years handed out penalties of R100 million, quicker than the Criminal Justice System #Steinhoff

SARB is investigating whether any exchange control laws or regulations have been breached #Steinhoff
— Aarti Narsee (@ajnarsee) January 31, 2018
Steinhoff’s acting chairwoman Heather Sonn said the company reported former CEO Markus Jooste to the Hawks.
The Financial Services Board (FSB) said it is investigating two cases of possible insider trading and one of false or misleading statements relating to Steinhoff.
The FSB has requested information from German authorities, including the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, and is in regular contact with the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, it added.
READ: Steinhoff again postpones publishing audited financials
The Government Employees Pension Fund (GEPF) said its shareholding in Steinhoff depreciated from R24.1-billion on 30 November 2017 to R1.8-billion by 31 December 2017.
The giant retailer asked PwC to investigate those irregularities, and postponed the release of its financial results.
Its share price plummeted last month following the debacle.

Health24.com | Should you eat before a workout?
Should you eat before you work out or not? It’s a question as old as the pursuit to get jacked, and even scientists have long debated this quandary.
And a new study has stepped up to answer the question by examining gene expression on fat tissue, according to Science Daily.
Read more: Here’s the eating schedule you should follow for optimal health
In a study to be published in the American Journal of Physiology, researchers at the University of Bath in the UK had a group of overweight males walk for 60 minutes on a maximum of 60% oxygen consumption.
First, they did so on an empty stomach. And in another run (or walk, rather), they ate a breakfast high in carbs two hours before the exercise.
To measure the distance, the researchers took multiple samples of blood and fat tissue.
Put simply, the answer to our question above is no. Fat tissue is busy responding to the meal during exercise, meaning less favourable changes to the tissue and less health benefits in the long term.
Read more: Is eating after 6pm really making you fat?
Put more complicated, the expression of two genes, PDK4 and HSL, increases after fasting and exercising and decreases after eating and exercising.
The rise in PDK4 likely indicates that stored fat was fuelling the metabolism in these men instead of the carbs. And the rise in HSL is typically indicative of fat tissue using stored energy in increased activity – like walking for 60 minutes on a maximum of 60% oxygen consumption, for example.
So, there’s your answer – for now, anyway. After all, as we’ve pointed out in the past, working out on an empty stomach doesn’t necessarily help you lose weight any faster than working out on a full stomach.
