Episode Details

Shadrack Sibiya's bail hearing in Randburg dominated the day. Nearly every newsroom carried the recordings and affidavits played in court, and the Madlanga Commission was drawn into the story by evening. Court action also ran through the political news, from the ANC's ballot fight at the Constitutional Court to the challenge over Ramaphosa's impeachment evidence leader. In sport, stations covered the Proteas' defeat at Kingsmead and Formula One's confirmation that it will return to Africa, in Rwanda rather than South Africa.
