Najwa Petersen will not be released on parole. The Department of Correctional Services says that the Parole Board has directed that she completes further intervention programmes before release. Her parole will only be reconsidered once all requirements are met. Officials say the process is part of ensuring rehabilitation and compliance. The matter remains under review until the programmes are successfully completed. Petersen was convicted in 2006 for the murder of her husband, Taliep. She was sentenced to 28 years in prison.

We feature a powerful and deeply personal book by Palestinian author Diana Shams, titled A Different Kind of Love: What It Means to Be a mother in Gaza.

Through her own experiences of raising children in the midst of conflict, Shams offers an intimate look at the strength, fear, hope, and unbroken love that define motherhood under unimaginable circumstances.

Her story not only humanizes life in Gaza but invites readers to reflect on resilience, sacrifice, and the universal bond between mother and child.

Tenderpreneur Vusimuzi “Cat” Matlala has told MPs he carried R300 000 in a Woolworths bag, which was then handed to former police minister Bheki Cele earlier this year. He is before Parliament’s AdHoc Committee probing police corruption. Matlala’s sister Claudette withdrew the money at FNB Menlyn Maine in Pretoria, and minutes later, the pair walked it straight to his luxury penthouse in the Capital Hotel where Cele was staying. Matlala joked and said that he “always operates with a Woolies bag – it’s the money bag.” Matlala also told the committee that he only made the payments after Cele asked for the money, claiming that it was in return for favours. Matlala had told the committee that there are holes in his written statement because the conditions at the Kgosi Mampuru Correctional Centre had affected his memory.

The Department of Employment and Labour says Western Cape construction firms have a poor record of obeying labour laws. This follows the collapse of a partially built apartment block in George last year. Inspectors carried out 311 site visits and found most employers breaking the law. On Wednesday, the department told Parliament it has handed its George report to the NPA. Prosecutors will now decide whether criminal charges should follow. Of the 77 workers affected, 68 lodged claims with the Compensation Fund. Only 15 of those claims came from South African citizens.
Chief inspector Milly Ruiters says more than R6 million has been paid to cover medical costs. MPs raised alarm that 53 foreign nationals on site had no work permits.

A Brackenfell family is praising a local hero after a terrifying ordeal with their baby. On Friday night, four-month-old, Daniel began choking after being given medication for a fever. His parents rushed him to hospital but stopped at the Brackenfell Fire Station in desperation. Firefighter Arlin Thielman immediately stepped in, stabilizing the infant and arranging emergency transport.

Daniel's mother, Miriam Pharoe, says his quick thinking and reassurance “turned the situation around.”

By the time they reached CapeGate Mediclinic, Daniel was stable and out of danger. The family reunited with Thielman this week to thank him.

The US cannot unilaterally bar another permanent member of the G20 from participating in the summit. Speaking to Radio 786, the Director-General of the Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO), Zane Dangor, says Washington will need to table this before all G20 member states. It comes as the US has assumed the G20 presidency with President Donald Trump announcing that they will bar South Africa. Director-General of DIRCO, Zane Dangor:

" A presidency has discretion to invite guest countries. South Africa is a permanent member, not a guest country, so there is no discretion. The U.S. will have to table this, and that would most likely have to take place at the first Sherpa meeting, which is on 16 December. They need consensus, and they have to have very good reasons to exclude a permanent member of the G20.”

Dangor also revealed that ahead of the G20 Leaders Summit in Johannesburg, discussions have been had on what if a member state decides not to attend and if attendance is made hard by a host country.

“The difference between voluntarily not attending and how that may be different from a host making it difficult for members to attend. And the idea was that if you made it difficult and deliberately made it hard for a delegate or president to attend, then the outcome document for that particular presidency would definitely not meet the bar for consensus. Consensus is reached when somebody is absent, but it's voluntary. But in the case where it's non-voluntary, then the rules of consensus kick in a way that those not present, not because they don't want to be present but because they are forced not to be present, can then break the consensus.”

US President Donald Trump has announced that South Africa will be barred from next year’s G20 summit, which will be hosted on American soil. In a social media post, Trump says Pretoria will not be invited. He cited Pretoria’s refusal to hand off the G20 Presidency to what he claimed was a senior representative from its embassy at the closing of the G20 Leaders Summit. He also peddled the lies of Afrikaner persecution. Trump claims South Africa has demonstrated to the world they are not a country worthy of membership anywhere. President Cyril Ramaphosa says Trump's statement is regrettable and South Africa as a sovereign constitutional democratic country does not appreciate insults from another country about its membership and worth in participating in global platforms. He further noted that despite the efforts and numerous attempts by Pretoria to reset the diplomatic relationship with the US, Trump continues to apply punitive measures against South Africa based on misinformation and distortions about the country. South Africa, which is a founding member, has vowed that it will continue to participate as a full, active and constructive member of the G20. It has called on members of the G20 to reaffirm its continued operation in the spirit of multilateralism, based on consensus, with all members participating on an equal footing in all of its structures.
