LIVE | Markus Jooste's co-accused to pay R600 000 penalty to close case against him

George Alan Evans, Markus Jooste's co-accused, has agreed with the German court to pay 30 000 euros . If he pays the penalty within three months, he will not be pursued in the Steinhoff case.

The case against Evans was seemingly withdrawn due to Jooste not being present and the fact Evans said he had trouble remembering what took place over a decade ago. If he does not pay within three months the case can be reopened.George Alan Evans, Markus Jooste's co-accused, in the Oldenburg regional court on Tuesday morning.

The case was later split in two due to Covid-19, with Jooste and Evans set to appear in court together. The absence of Jooste means that Evans is in court alone. - Jan Cronje Evans, who does not appear to understand German, is looking through some documents while the prosecutor continues to read the charges against him and Jooste. His two translators appear to be recording the charges, perhaps to translate later.
