Johannesburg - Convicted Durban businessman Sifiso Zulu handed himself over at the Westville Prison on Saturday to start a three-year sentence for culpable homicide, the SABC reported.
He was expected to report to prison on Friday, following the KwaZulu-Natal High Court in Pietermaritzburg's dismissal of his appeal last week against his conviction and sentence for a 2008 road accident.
Zulu, 42 the former head of the Durban Chamber of Commerce, was convicted in April 2010.
The court found that Zulu, driving a BMW X5, had jumped a red robot and crashed into a bakkie, killing two members of the Souls Harbour Church and injuring eight others in March 2008.
He was sentenced to five years in jail, two of which were suspended, and fined R7 000 for various driving offences.
