The whole thing has been a farce and basically sends the very wrong message out on corruption the the consequences thereof.

How long will it be before his Yengeni'ness is in breach of his parole conditions and caught on camera having a dop I wonder?

One of his parole conditions is that he "not be allowed to be in the company of many people", a condition that I think will be breached within about 0.15 sec of his being released.

Well they organised a welcome party. I do not know why as he had a 4 month long continues party.

Yengeni actually served his FULL sentence!
Believe it or not ...

The African National Congress in the Western Cape said on Friday several of its senior members would be there to greet their party's former chief whip, including provincial secretary Mcebisi Skwatsha and chairman James Ngculu.

So from this would it be unreasonable to conclude that the ruling party condones corruption?

Well... there is this old song.... goes something like this

Should I stay or should I go now


and if you were wondering... if you can, and you have the will... go

If this tells you nothing more, go... get out now

Do not think that things will get better, and that there is a dream worth fighting for.... go


What this is saying to everyone that holds anything dear, is there is no hope

It is worse than do as you wilt

What was your previous post?

Unfortunately very true.

They don't condone it. They just think people who were caught need support.

This probably goes back to the apartheid era when anyone caught by the SAP for political crimes were celibrated as heroes - and now are in charge. I see this theme in many ANC actions. They cannot get apartheid out of their heads.

how do you think they will enforce the no alcohol rule, they could not do it while he was actually serving his sentence? Lip service, no more, no less!

I don't think he can return to a government position since he now has a criminal record. All hands up for a presidential pardon With the favours/connections he has aquired, a business carrer beckons...

cheers

hopefully this is more pc, since my previous post was deemed unsuitable.

A sentence of at least 5 years precludes anyone from entering parliament. No doubt the judge had this in mind when giving out the 4 year sentence. It also applied to the hundreds of MPs caught in the Travelgate saga, some of whom are cabinet ministers.

Yengeni is now confined to his house for the 5/6th remainder of his sentence. Who knows what he will do in the privacy of his own home.

I'm sure there is a job waiting for him at Telkom

 

[Boodles]

I dont understand the alcohol enforcement. This guy is not allowed to drink booze whilst on parole? I dont see what booze has got to do with it.

can anyone explain?

Parole is supposed to simulate the rigours of prison life I would guess, without the rape and bullying.
