FOR ONLINE READING ONLY
$26 million earned through corrupt contracts with Eskom, citing
violations of public finance laws between 2013 and 2016. The
payment order stems from a settlement with the anti-corruption
agency SIU, upheld by the Special Tribunal, which found the
contracts to be constitutionally invalid. SIU seeks to recover
losses from negligence or corruption suffered by state institutions
and clarifies that the settlement does not shield SAP from potential
prosecution. SAP must remit the payment to SIU within seven
days. In January, the company agreed to settle a $220 bribery
charge involving government officials in various countries
including South Africa. The company allegedly paid consultation
fees for undelivered services and funding trips to New York and
golf outings for government officials in South Africa.
