Pretoria - Major allegations had been raised about businessman Dr Iqbal Survé tampering with the editorial operations of his media company and the impact of this on the PIC investment, Emmanuel Lediga, an assistant to the commissioner Justice Lex Mpati, told the Mpati Commission of Inquiry into allegations of impropriety at the PIC in Pretoria.
“I can only speak to the facts. The facts are I can give you copies of letters I have written to all the editors in terms of how and what we do. The principles are to be accurate, tell both sides of the story, don’t take sides and be truthful. That is in writing and in contracts. “The day we no longer have objectivity, the business is gone. I emphasised to my colleagues that we should not be tempted into factional battles. Let the Sunday Times, Daily Maverick and Business Day do that if they want. I said to my colleagues you must remain true to the facts. It is not a policy that has made me popular.”
“Independent Media is the most objective media house in the country,” Survé said. “That comes at a price. As one minister said to me at a function ‘we are very disappointed with you because you don’t take sides’.“Another minister called me three months ago and threatened me at 10 pm in the evening. He said your journalists have called me about bank statements and things and those journalists are doing the bidding of certain people.
