Eskom steel thief arrested

Police have arrested an Eskom employee for allegedly stealing pylon steel and selling it to a scrap metal dealer.

Eskom has announced that one of its employees were arrested on Thursday

^was

Eskom’s security team waited for the employee to return and arrested him for stealing the company’s property.

Was this a citizen's arrest by a member of Eskom's security team?

The suspect was taken into custody at the Midrand police station.

Surely the thieving employee was taken into custody by a member of Eskom's security team that made the (citizen's) arrest at/near the scrap metal dealer's business premises?

Maybe that should read 'taken into police custody'.

Eskom suspends load-shedding early

(Because there is no end to loadshedding, only islands of temporary reprieve)

South Africa’s top online publication is News24, with a readership of 12 million unique monthly browsers in March 2022.

News24 is followed BusinessTech with 6.5 million readers, TimesLive with 5.5 million, and The South African with 3.2 million.

Top publications. Much grammar.

As of the close of markets on 20 April 2022, a Telkom share on the JSE was worth R4.43 — around 93% more than the R2.30 it cost on 20 April 2012.

Telkom and Vodacom never traded at those levels.

Anyway, who cares about accuracy or decimal placement?

How Supersonic rapidly grew its subscriber base and became ISP of the year

Supersonic signed up thousands of customers and won ISP of the Year in its first year of operations. Here is its secret.

mybroadband.co.za

1. Why is this article dated 11 April 2022?
2. Why does it imply that Supersonic is ISP of the year, without mentioning WHICH year? Aside from deep in the text, 2019, and why is that relevant now ?
3. How is this article relevant, for an ISP that hasn't won an award since 2019 ?
4. Was this article paid for ?
5. Who is the best ISP for 2022?
