TimesLIVE reports that the Constitutional Court (ConCourt) on Wednesday denied a bid by former SA Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) COO Hlaudi Motsoeneng to appeal against a Supreme Court of Appeal decision regarding the “success fee” he received from the public broadcaster.
The Special Investigating Unit (SIU), which said on Thursday it had already recovered R6.47m from his pension benefits, welcomed Wednesday’s ruling, saying it cleared the way to pursue the outstanding amount from Motsoeneng. The SABC Board had in 2016 unlawfully decided to pay him a R11.5m “success fee” for his role in securing a MultiChoice deal. By court order, Motsoeneng was ordered to repay the R11.5m plus interest, bringing his total liabilities to about R18m.
