Carte Blanche

Imagine driving home with your family at night and suddenly finding yourself in the middle of a shootout. That’s what happened to the Ismail family five years ago. They were told they were caught in a crossfire, but the evidence raises more questions than answers. Despite a stalled investigation, the family hasn't given up their quest for justice and continues to ask questions of the very people whose job it is to protect us.

Our next story is one of the most surprising investigations our team has ever undertaken. At its heart is a Limpopo company that sells what it claims are edible colours and glitters. Exactly the sort of thing a baking enthusiast would use to make their cupcakes Instagram-worthy. But insiders told us that all was not as it seemed in this world of sweet confectionery. So, our crew set out to uncover the secrets beneath the frosting.

Municipalities across the country are struggling to provide the most basic services. Sometimes, the only way to avoid crying about it all is to have a laugh. So, when a years-old leak transformed a Joburg street corner into a lap pool, Macfarlane put on his wet suit and took the plunge.

It’s been a source of simmering tension and violence for decades. Porous borders, corrupt officials and an inefficient bureaucracy have resulted in millions of undocumented foreigners living in often precarious conditions all over South Africa. And as infrastructure and public services crumble, they’re increasingly bearing the brunt of local anger. This story is about a group that believes undocumented immigrants are responsible for delays and shortages in our strained public healthcare system. March and March has taken matters into its own hands – and despite acting illegally, it’s getting plenty of support. But is this a patriotic movement, or one built on xenophobia

This isn’t the first time we’ve reported on rehab gone wrong. People seeking help with addiction are all too often taken advantage of by self-proclaimed healers. Some claim to operate on spiritual principals but wield much darker methods behind closed doors. And that’s what we investigate in this story. In this coastal rehab centre, addiction is seen as sin. And the solution? Allegedly, isolation, forced labour and physical punishment. We headed to KZN to meet the families paying the cost of believing the Tetelestai Recovery Centre's promises.

Nearly two years ago, we brought you a chilling story about an alleged rogue unit operating within the National Defence Force. Investigations suggested that highly trained, dangerous members of the Special Forces were operating above the law, involved in kidnapping, torture and even murder. Then, in June, news broke that several SANDF members - including Special Forces operatives - had been arrested. The State’s case appears to include elements revealed in our own investigation. It’s a story unfolding in real time, with widespread implications for the rule of law, the operation of secret armed forces in our country and vulnerable whistleblowers.

Georgia: it’s a tiny country between Russia and Türkiye whose GDP since the early 2000s has been one of the fastest-growing in the world. In a bid to further boost their economy, the Georgian government developed an agricultural development plan and invited South African farmers to relocate there in 2010 to help get it off the ground. Dozens packed up and went. But a lot can change in 15 years. Under a new government, different laws and a changing foreign policy, how are those South Africans doing today? Nickolaus Bauer took a trip to find out.

His story has the makings of a Hollywood blockbuster. But for Daniel Janse van Rensburg, the reality of life in Equatorial Guinea’s notorious Black Beach prison was nothing less than a living hell. Daniel was kidnapped and held captive without charge for almost two years following a failed business deal with a politician. In an exclusive television interview, Daniel tells Carte Blanche of the horror of imprisonment and surviving rotten food, disease and gangsters, before finally paying a bribe to secure his freedom.

Earlier this month, President Ramaphosa addressed the nation on a matter of national security. This after KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi dropped bombshell allegations about political interference in crime investigations. Speaking in Pretoria, the President announced the launch of a commission of inquiry to investigate allegations relating to the infiltration of law enforcement and the judiciary by criminal syndicates. In the meantime, Police Minister Mchunu has been put on leave. It’s another unfolding story, and we’ll be bringing you in-depth investigations and analysis in future shows. But for now, here’s a look at the man behind the outcry.

We have a long, rich history in motorsports – from manufacturing rally vehicles to contributing champions to the F1 circuit. We’re also home to the only oval speedway in Africa: the Phakisa Freeway near Welkom in the Free State. For locals, Phakisa is legendary – once home to international events and the source of a booming motorsports economy. But today, all that is a distant memory. We went to Welkom to interview people wanting to revive the track and got threatened with arrest in the process.

It's a cliché: when the price seems too good to be true, that's probably because it is. And women turning to influencers for the “international” look are finding it out the hard way. Injectable cosmetics - they promise to plump your skin, sculpt your cheekbones, and even stop time. And untrained, unlicensed practitioners are cashing in on their popularity. Lourensa peers beneath the skin of the beauty industry and finds a flourishing underground market.

The Public Investment Corporation (PIC) was established over 100 years ago to manage investments on behalf of entities like the Government Employees’ Pension Fund (GEPF) and the Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF) – public sector funds that provide social security. That means it's managing assets on behalf of taxpayers, like you. So, why does the PIC seem to be standing by while a poultry business worth overR1 billion is allegedly looted and run into the ground? That's what we set out to investigate. What we encountered were reports of a whistleblower fired, then arrested and her home raided, desperate employees demanding their wages, thousands of starving chickens, and a cast of characters with a hand in the business’s demise. It's a maze of alleged political influence and governance failures.

It was a controversial showdown between President Cyril Ramaphosa and his US counterpart, Donald Trump at the White House. But even as our delegation attempted to reset relations last month, a meeting of an entirely different kind was taking place between two countries - on home soil. A South African soprano stepped onto a Pretoria stage, accompanied by the celebrated Michigan Philharmonic Orchestra. And together, they made magic and united nations through music.

A known gangster with multiple sentences - awaiting trial for murder - dies in prison under shadowy circumstances. Some might say “good riddance”. But this single death opens a window into apparent dysfunction and mismanagement. Our prisons are overcrowded and understaffed, known hotspots for gangsterism. And it’s claimed some of those in charge of maintaining order are as violent as the criminals in their care. When conflict broke out inside a Cape Town prison earlier this year, it brought those concerns into stark focus. Lourensa investigates.

It's a natural resource in bigger demand than oil, central to how we build and live in our world – from our cities to our cell phones. And it’s in short supply globally. Believe it or not, we're talking about sand. And a sand mining application is dividing one tiny coastal town. Residents who are locked in battle with the dunes drifting over their properties think the mine will save their homes, while others believe it spells the end of the unspoiled natural beauty they love.
