The much-anticipated Donen report into SA’s involvement in Iraq’s oil-for-food scandal was finally released clearing top political figures such as Deputy President Kgalema Motlanthe and Human Settlements Minister Tokyo Sexwale but failing to lay to rest all the questions about kickbacks and fraud committed by South Africans. A Commission of inquiry investigated their conduct in the alleged illicit activities of certain South African companies and individuals relating to the United Nations Oil for Food Programme in Iraq. It also investigated illegal transactions between the UN Oil for Food programme, it was widely reported that the two men were involved in the scandal.

Greenpeace demonstrators deported from South Africa

The deportation of three "foreign" Greenpeace demonstrators, who attempt to absail the Protea Edward Hotel at COP17 in Durban. The men - from Germany, Australia and Denmark - were part of a group of Greenpeace activists arrested on the sidelines of the UN climate conference yesterday as they protested against carbon emissions. They were detained as they tried to hang a banner reading: "Listen to the people, not the polluters" on to the Protea Hotel, where a World Business Council on Sustainable Development conference was taking place.
