SA Firm In Trouble For Accepting Zanu PF Money [Zimbabwe]

A…multinational media company, Naspers, this week received wide condemnation for printing President Robert Mugabe’s presidential run-off campaign material. According to media reports, workers at the Gauteng-based Paarl Web Gauteng, a subsidiary of Naspers, this week wrote a petition to group chairman Ton Vosloo demanding that the company donate proceeds of the "blood money" to local charity organisations. Journalists and activists reportedly joined the condemnation. The firm’s chief executive, Stephen van der Walt, confirmed that funds would be given to an appropriate charity.
