In a stunning revelation, it has been reported that South African flyhalf Elton Jantjies has tested positive for Clenbuterol, a banned substance used by bodybuilders due to its fatburning properties.

As a result, Jantjies, who is known for his impressive skills, could be facing suspension.
In recent years, South African schools have been plagued by a worrying trend of teachers engaging in assault and corporal punishment.
