The Labour Court orders former V&A Waterfront chief information officer Sibongiseni Thotsejane to pay more than R2.8 million in damages. The court finds she misrepresented her employment history and breached conflict-of-interest obligations.
According to reports, the dispute centres on claims by V&A Waterfront that it was induced to employ Thotsejane through inaccurate information about her previous work. One outlet describes the matter as a fraud case, while another focuses on the court’s findings regarding misrepresentation and related contractual or compliance duties.
Across the sources, the key outcome is the damages order and the court’s conclusions on misrepresentation. The coverage differs mainly in emphasis—some frame the allegation in terms of fraud and inducement, while others highlight the breach of conflict-of-interest obligations alongside the employment-history issue.
