Eight years after the convicted fraudster, Shabir Sheik was released on parole because he was terminally ill, he is still being regarded as such.
This despite the fact that his parole conditions have been so relaxed that he has permission to work from Monday to Friday from 08:00 to 18:30. And that he can attend his son’s school functions between 17:00 and 19:00 and attend sports functions once a week between 12:00 and 19:00, and that he regularly receives permission to leave the province.
This state of affairs was confirmed by the Minister of Justice and Correctional Services, Masutha, in parliament.
However, the medical profession say that with such a busy program, which includes daily work, someone can not be diagnosed as terminally ill.
Shaik was released in parole in 2009, after serving only two years of a 15-year sentence for complaints of corruption and fraud.
So far no links have been revealed between Shaik and the Guptas, but observers say they will not be surprised if the Guptas also played a role in this.
