Dewani Trial Week 2
Who fired the shot that killed Anni Dewani? Or was her death indeed an accident as suggested by the defence team? Carte Blanche unpacks startling new revelations from the second week of the Shrien Dewani trial.
Producer: Liz Fish
Presenter: John Webb
*Please note that Carte Blanche Legal Round Table: The Shrien Dewani Trial, will continue on M-Net this week after the Sunday night movie. The show will be an hour-long weekly round-up of the Shrien Dewani trial, and will be broadcast every Sunday night for the duration of the trial. David O’Sullivan and Katy Katopodis will be joined in studio each week by legal experts, psychologists and social media pundits to analyse the latest developments of the Dewani trial.*
Soutpansberg Mining
Precious farmland in the Soutpansberg is under serious threat from open-cast coal mining. The area is home to some of the country’s largest fresh produce farms and fears exist that mining could pollute ground water. Carte Blanche asks if we should risk food security for short-term mining wealth?
Producer: Liz Fish
Presenter: Bonita Nuttall
Crime City
In the criminal underworld they’re known as “The Ethiopians” – a brazen syndicate linked to several truck hijackings, warehouse and mall robberies. Their loot of choice? Designer jeans, mobile phones and electronics. Carte Blanche investigates.
Producer: Johann Botha
Presenter: Devi Sankaree Govender
Stepping Forward
It’s hard to imagine what it means to a mother to be told her newborn baby has a condition known as Club Foot. Images of painful surgery to a tiny body and years of recuperation…. But happily, no longer, thanks to the rediscovery of a non-invasive procedure pioneered 50 years ago. Carte Blanche meets a mother who has set out to help children across South Africa.
Producer: Diana Lucas
Presenter: Derek Watts
