The employees have written an open letter saying they are being wrongfully ‘punished’ for past corruption and mismanagement at SA Express.
SA Express was provisionally liquidated at the end of April this year after a failed business rescue attempt. A court date was originally set for 9 June for any party to come and show why the airline should not be placed in final liquidation. However, due to the possibility that a still-unnamed potential investor may be interested in the airline, the matter has been postponed until 9 September.
In an email dated 23 July and seen by Fin24, the group received feedback from Nonny Mashika, the DPE’s deputy director general for aviation, to say that the department has been liaising with the provisional liquidator of the airline “to identify a holistic approach” to the challenges faced by the employees. Mashika said further engagements with the provisional liquidator will be undertaken, and the department has asked her to explore all options available for further consideration by government.
