The Special Tribunal on Tuesday found that the 2016 decision by SABC executives to award R50,000 each to 53 music legends was irregular and unlawful.

However, the tribunal said the R2.425m debt that the Special Investigating Unit sought from a number of former SABC executives, including Hlaudi Motsoeneng, to pay back to the public broadcaster had become prescribed.

The SABC and the SIU sought to recover the R50,000 payments, from the then SABC executives, in the proceedings before the tribunal.
