In your midweek news catch-up with Unread host Graeme Raubenheimer, we hear from the Ministry of International Relations that the SA high commissioner to India, Anil Sooklal, won’t be sanctioned, as yet, for getting his picture taken with former president Jacob Zuma and state capture co-accused Ajay Gupta in Haridwar. In other news, a male French staffer, accused of raping a teenage boy at KwaZulu-Natal’s new Club Med resort, gets bail, and claims of racism rock school rugby in Pretoria and Cape Town. Joburg’s city dumps, we hear, are almost all completely full, and finally, Spider-Man: Brand New Day breaks an SA box office record. All these topics and more are covered in 10 minutes or less. Expect fresh shows twice a week. This show has been carefully produced, presented and edited by Raubenheimer, News24 visual director Wynand Louw, and video journalists Luke Daniel, Storm Simpson and Chelsea Ogilvie.
