The SABC's interim board has suspended four top executives, the corporation has announced this morning.
Their suspensions follows the auditor-general report into mismanagement and other financial irregularities.
"The four members who have been suspended are the Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Robin Nicholson, the Group Executive: Content Enterprises, Mr. Mvuzo Mbebe, the Head of Audience Services, Mr. Anton Heunis and the Head of Group Procurement, Mr. Mabela Satekge.
"The Interim Board would like to stress that the suspension of the four senior executives does not in any way imply that any conclusions have been reached on whether or not there has been any wrong doing by any of the executives or other staff members.
The Chairperson of the Interim Board Irene Charnley stated that the Interim Board is committed to ensuring that due process in relation to the disciplinary processes is followed," the board said.
