UPDATE: Liquid gold | Carte Blanche | M-Net

In South Africa, diesel is liquid gold – it's in high demand, easy to trade and difficult to trace. That is why organised crime syndicates are cashing in. In October last year, we investigated cross-border tax fraud in diesel imports. The story had far-reaching implications... Since our exposé, industry leaders and investigators have been cracking down on illicit traders with some success.

Who is running the country? Isnt the president responsible? Voertsek anc!

And always weighbridges that are out of order. Coincidence???

Is refreshing to see that some consequences of the exposed truth are having place. Keep going!!! Corruption is a global cancer what do we DO about it makes the difference. The people deserves better!

To those who are upset by this information and are commenting here and elsewhere:

I hope you understand that if you, your family, or friends don't start asking important questions about "CHEAP" fuel, and continue supporting criminals just to save a few Rands, all you’ll be left with soon are the dodgy, corrupt thieves.

Legitimate and honest traders are disappearing, and there aren’t many of us left. Even some of the bigger private brands should be properly investigated.

R4.5 BILLION IN LOST TAXES --- Does the government understand the MEANING of this loss in revenue!

[johanlotter]

It all comes down to what the ANC has allowed.

Why are we importing, dont we make fuel from coal at Sasol, and it cost much less than importing.
I am glad this is exposed, but what damage is mixed fuel costing the end user?

[pulengphatedi]

If the government doesn't take the country's laws seriously and have proper majors in place to prevent crime or to even stop it, then why should everybody do. 😢 The ones in leadership, knows exactly what's happening😢

Disel pryses need to be regulated really. This weekend saw disel prices at different petrol stations from between R20.75 to R23:89. Some places even more.

[wentzelwilliams]

Government is the cause and the consequence. Useless.

As much as I love Carte Blanche, we don't see nearly enough action from police and prosecutors on our findings

[MrMahemrs]

Wow you got your new south africa that you wanted.

[willoville]

One thing i like about this show is that they tell you where money is made and what you do with information is up to you😅😅

[phumelelakhawula]

So it's takes you forever to upload one episode, we waiting for episodes for last month

[tebogogladystladi]

In South Africa this days everything is possible.

You dont need a weigh bridge to observe a tanker carrying 60, 000l vs claimed 40, 000l - but you do need bribe less civil servants ...

4, 5B into the hands of a comrades government, poor rainbow nation
