'Constitution compels authorities to act without prejudice' - Standard Bank CEO
Eighty CEOs of some of South Africa’s largest companies (Naspers, Anglo American, Barclays Africa, Standard Bank, Old Mutual and others) have signed a pledge in support of Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan, and against politically motivated prosecutions.
