BDLive reports that the SA Broadcasting Corporation’s (SABC’s) former chief operating officer Hlaudi Motsoeneng, who was reportedly paid an R11.4m bonus last week, will likely face yet more court action.  

This likelihood follows reports that the broadcaster is determined to retain him in an acting capacity, in apparent defiance of a Supreme Court of Appeal order.  The Democratic Alliance (DA) announced at the weekend that it had instructed its legal team to challenge Motsoeneng’s appointment as acting chief operating officer.  The bonus payment could also be raised in the court papers, which will be lodged this week.
