South African authorities should have sought to bring back the former Steinhoff CEO Markus Jooste to face the charges against him.

Former Steinhoff International CEO Markus Jooste

A visiting Professor at the Wits School of Economics and Business Sciences, Jannie Rossouw says German Prosecutors have applied for an arrest warrant against Jooste after he failed to make his first court appearance on Tuesday. Jooste was scheduled to face his first criminal case in Germany over the accounting irregularities of various subsidiaries of the company. The public prosecutor’s office in Oldenburg applied for the suspension of the proceedings and the issuing of an arrest warrant.

The trial is the first criminal charge against Jooste to be heard since Steinhoff’s collapse five years ago over an accounting scandal. Steinhoff is listed on both the Johannesburg and Frankfurt Stock Exchanges.“There’s no reason for the South African authorities not to ensure that Jooste is returned. I cannot think of any reason that he cannot be returned to South Africa. We have not had any explanation on why Jooste is not being tried by South African criminal authorities.

Why is Zuma not facing charges or in Jail Why is Ramaphosa not in jail Why is Gwede not in jail Why is Pravin not in jail Why can't our authorities bring them to face their shit, SA has the most screwed up justice system in the world

Because Germany is taking action

Check the sealed CR17BankStatements to find out why

Really, they can't even bring back the Guptas, so good luck with that......

He is too white to can bring him back to SA

…in a rush to suddenly do something now that the German courts have acted…always playing catch up, never the leader.

Basaba abelungu

This criminal paid lots of money to Batohi and her NPA to protect him,under the disguised that the money was to investigate his complex case something I never heard before ,the Germans won't play with him azomnyisa nyi

Do they want him to face the music in Germany and get a light sentence so that he can plead double jeopardy in SA? I wonder.

White privilege

Here they would rather focus on planning his fake death.

His is a testament of a broken, incompetent, kangaroo criminal justice system in South Africa. Jooste is untouchable, Eskom cannot be investigated & you wonder why some label the Constitution as a complete joke. Funny, CIA-sponsored traitor NGOs have nothing to say about him.

😂😂

The problem is the the president will be implicated

Not under anc government

Pigmentation talks

😂😂😂only selective that doesn't implicate those in government and politicians are brought back without waste of time....

They couldn’t even bring back the Guptas, they were so useless.
