Gender debacle made Caster stronger


London, England – Caster Semenya says the gender testing debacle that dogged her early international career has made her stronger for challenges such as the 2012 London Olympic Games.

Semenya was speaking ahead of the opening ceremony where she will lead out the South African team as the flag bearer.

“I am not going to worry about these gender things, I’m just going to concentrate on my future and look forward,” Semenya said.

She added that it was a great privilege to carry the South African flag, an honour she did not expect to befall upon her.

“It is quite exciting and, for me, when I look back at my career, I didn’t think I was going to make it to the Olympics,” she said

NPA ‘made up’ Breytenbach charges


The National Prosecuting Authority has fabricated charges against suspended prosecutor Glynnis Breytenbach, her lawyer said on Friday.

“They are trumped up charges designed to get rid of Glynnis Breytenbach,” Wim Trengove said at her disciplinary hearing in Pretoria.

He was referring in particular to two charges relating to Breytenbach doing work outside the NPA; she allegedly rented out a flat and ran a horse stabling business.

Trengove was cross-examining Hercules Wasserman, acting senior manager of the NPA’s integrity management unit, at the authority’s offices in Silverton.

Trengove pointed out that renting out a flat did not amount to performing remunerative work.

Breytenbach had stabled a horse for a friend’s child which had cost her R2 500 a month, although the friend could only contribute R1000 towards this, he said.

Wasserman said he was not aware of this.

Trengove said this was because Wasserman had not investigated
