Hlaudi Motsoeneng’s successor is said to have been found guilty of three of the four charges he faced at a disciplinary hearing
The SABC has terminated the contract of COO Chris Maroleng with immediate effect.
An internal disciplinary hearing found that Motsoeneng had lied about his qualifications, that he purged the SABC of staff and promoted people and raised salaries without following the correct procedures. According to the documents seen by Business Day’s sister newspaper Sunday World, Maroleng was charged for his role in trying to save former SABC acting group executive for sports Marcia Mahlalela’s job at SA Rugby.
Maroleng told SA Rugby that she was not found guilty of any wrongdoing. He told the rugby body that the charges against Mahlalela were not substantiated. He also said the SABC would have found it difficult to prove any of the allegations against her. “My main intention was to assist Ms Mahlalela to rescue the precarious position that surrounded her employment at Saru, and not to get her unemployed, if at all that was possible,” Maroleng said in response to the charge.He said his response on the charges faced by Mahlalela was informed by the legal advice he had received from the head of legal division, Nompumelelo Phasha.
