The King Commission's interim
report on the Hansie Cronje match-fixing scandal will be made
public by tomorrow morning, a spokesman for the sports
ministry has said.
“It is being made public on Friday. We will post it on
the government's website,” Gregory Abrahams, the spokesman
for sport and recreation minister Ngconde Balfour, told AFP
on Wednesday.
The lengthy, long-awaited report on Cronje's confessions
of corruption was on August 11 handed to Balfour who in turn
gave it to President Thabo Mbeki to examine before it could be
published.
The United Cricket Board of South Africa (UCB) said it was expecting to receive a copy of the report this morning and would hand one to International Cricket Council President David Richards, who is in the country. “We are getting it tomorrow (Thursday) but we won't comment on it until Monday when we make public the findings of the disciplinary hearings,” UCB spokeswoman Bronwyn Wilkinson said. The UCB will Monday announce the disciplinary steps it will take against Herschelle Gibbs, Henry Williams and Pieter Strydom, three players who were implicated in corruption in the course of hearings into the Cronje scandal.
