Expect presidential intervention in ... 3 ... 2 ... 1

Hmm, somehow I think this is all for show...

Yes, he will be released after the elections.....

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Next weekend Shaik will be seen in on the wild coast sun's golf course showing us that miracles does happen.

Yep, miracles does happen.

Yes, he will be released after the elections.....

Did you read the article ??

He was arrested and will be imprisoned for 72 hours only.

 

[SirFooK'nG]

probably just for questioning with regards to the assault (alleged) ....

No it is not for questioning - it is a punitive measure as indicated by the DCS.

There is no need to imprison someone in order to question them - that can be done at any SAPS service station.

That is the way I understand it.

This is just a circus, we haven't seen pictures of him being arrested or in prison. If he is arrested let him rot in prison. Now spill the beans on the Pres Shaik, I am daring you!

“They are taking me to prison,” The Daily News quoted Shaik as saying in a dramatic cellphone call during a meeting with Correctional Services officials on Monday morning.

Shortly after being highly distraught on the phone, he reportedly was photographed being driven out of his Morningside home in a Correctional Services vehicle, with a prison official driving and another sitting next to him in the back.

How very sad.

NOT !

Well, this is turning out to be a great Monday, despite having taken two hours to get to work today.

You just have to love the way the media reports on famous (infamous?!) people, as if they are so much more fragile than the rest of us ... in any article, they are always referred to as being "distraught", "desperate", "highly strung", "traumatised", or "stunned".

The rest of us? We just get on with it

Well, this is turning out to be a great Monday, despite having taken two hours to get to work today.

Cannot agree more

Shaik is a terminally ill patient......

He has been waiting to die for a while now.....tick tock

 

[blunomore]

The issue will end up in the gutters...

Shaik will be playing a fourball on Wed afternoon........

Not possible if you calculate 72 hours from this morning.

 

[BBSA]

Not possible if you calculate 72 hours from this morning.

You are assuming they will keep to the 72 hours.

Guess the Dept of Correctional affairs will have to schedule a hearing after the round of golf.

Respect to the man that came out and reported the 2nd assault although he refuses to open a case for fear of intimidation

 

[marine1]

I doubt he will stay in jail. I think this is just PR work going on for the DCS.

I think you are right. Bloody terminal ill bastard! The doctors that lied and said he is terminal should have their licences revoked also! Agents...ALL OF THEM!

 

[Sideshow Bob]

Shaik, Gupta.. And now in print; on the lines of 'Art of War' - "Art of Diversion" inspired by other beneficiary of symbiotic relationship.

Yes, I am assuming that they will keep to the time preiod.

However, I already told how I think he will be imprisoned - hardly in a cell with the other inmates.
