Last week a truck driver was arrested at Eskom’s Camden station also for allegedly swapping out good coal.

De Ruyter said at an event last week that arrests were made by private security companies employed by Eskom, not by the SA Police Service.

_Business Don't stress, our incompetent prosecutors from univen and the compromised judiciary is certainly going to withdraw the charges for some timid reasons.

_Business What's sad is that people believe all this BS De Ruyter keeps feeding us through FakeNews24

_Business This upsets me, I truly know De Ruyter has the hardest job so been quite impressed so far even though many don’t believe the same. But now I am doubting -for R99 a month they can put some trackers into the trucks and make sure no stops in dubious locations. Eskom_SA

_Business Everyone working with or at Eskom seems to be involved in criminal activities. Could the honest employees and contractors please stand up. Where has our ethics gone?

_Business What manner of evil is this?

_Business Wow these guys have a degree in crime hey.
