Sibiya's "dishonourable discharge", CPT sues over N1 crash, and F1 back in Africa

Loading player...
Coming up in your midweek edition of News24’s Unread, Shadrack Sibiya dishonourably discharges himself from the SA Police Service, amid a drawn-out bid for bail on charges of alleged rape, human trafficking and sexual grooming of a minor. Meanwhile, a pair of March and March men have been granted bail following the recent chaos in Durban, Soweto and Johannesburg, but won’t be able to march again anytime soon. Detectives make a significant albeit small breakthrough in the September murder of Kempton Park runner, Elizabeth “Tsontso” Moselakgomo, by tracing her stolen smartwatch. We speak to the City of Cape Town’s JP Smith about the repercussions of the recent N1 bridge truck crash. And finally, among a few other stories making headlines this week thus far, Formula One is coming to Africa, just not South Africa just yet. Expect fresh shows twice a week. This show has been carefully produced, presented and edited by Raubenheimer, News24 visual director Wynand Louw, and video journalists Luke Daniel, Storm Simpson and Chelsea Ogilvie. This show is then quality-checked by an editor and/or senior member of News24. #news24video #News24 For this story and more, visit News24: https://www.news24.com/multimedia/video
