VIP unit in scuffle with SABC

2009-01-04 14:02

Johannesburg - The presidency's VIP protection unit confiscated equipment from the SABC during a scuffle on the N12 outside Johannesburg, the broadcaster reported on Sunday.

President Kgalema Motlanthe's motorcade was involved in an accident on the highway, east of Johannesburg on Saturday.

A red VW Golf apparently collided with a car in the president's convoy. Motlanthe was unhurt.

When SABC journalists arrived, their footage was confiscated.

SABC head of news and current affairs Snuki Zikalala said: "I had a discussion with the presidency and they've assured the SABC that the material will be returned to us and the matter will be resolved amicably."
