Apology In the June 5 to 11 2026 edition, the Mail & Guardian published an article with the headline Rafik Mohamed out on bail and a sub-headline Ongoing investigations linked to SA Steel Mills. The story concerned businessman Rafik Mohamed being granted bail by the Palm Ridge Commercial Crimes Court after being charged with fraud, theft, and contravening the Companies Act. On 15 July 2026, the Press Council of South Africa published a ruling in the complaint brought by Mr Rafik Mohamed against the Mail & Guardian, wherein five (5) of seven (7) alleged breaches of the Press Code were dismissed. These omissions have been corrected in the updated article. Read the full ruling at www.presscouncil.org.za.
