According to the report, prisoners would produce their own food in future to ease pressure on the budget of the Department of Correctional Services. The department currently pays catering contractors millions of rand per year to run prison kitchens and feed prisoners. The Minister said, under the Correctional Services Act, prisoners are supposed to work but this is uncommon in South African prisons.

Stephen Rosen was sentenced to six years imprisonment after being convicted on 101 counts of fraud involving R1, 86 million. According to the IOL report, Magistrate Amrith Chabillal said "You need to understand that your criminal history goes against you and that it's only on humanitarian grounds that I am ruling in favour of your release from prison".

    PREVALENCE OF BOVINE DERMATOPHILOSIS INFECTION AND THE ASSOCIATED RISK FACTORS IN THE COMMUNAL AREA OF MUREHWA; ZIMBABWE BY NYASHA MUNYANYI R146016C A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the requirements for the degree of BSc (Hons) Animal and Wildlife Sciences, Department of Livestock and Wildlife Management, Faculty of Natural Resource Management and Agriculture, Midlands State University May 2018 i Abstract A study to investigate the prevalence and associated risk factors was done in Murehwa district; Zimbabwe. The research was aimed at determining the prevalence of the disease and also determining the associated risk factors as determinants of the disease. The study was done by using questioners to randomly selected farmers who had reported the disease to the Veterinary Services. A total of 378 cattle were examined in the dry and the wet season. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 20 software and Epi-info version 3 software. The findings reviewed no significant association of age (p=0.42); sex (p=0.863); presence of Amblyomma hebraeum (p=0.275); presence of the Rhepicaphalus tick species (p=0.834); dipping frequency and tick load whereas Amblyomma variegatum and season were statistically significantly associated with dermatophilosis with p values of p=0.000(p<0.05) and p=0.01(p<0.05) respectively. These results add to a growing body of evidence that, suggest the Amblyomma variegatum and season are strongly associated in the pathogenesis of dermatophilosis as highlighted by higher prevalence of dermatophilosis in the wet season (65.44%)95% CI( 56.81-73.8) as compared to the dry season (34.56%)95%CI (26.60-43.19).
