The amaBhungane Centre for Investigative Journalism, a renowned South African organization, has won a landmark victory in a court case against influential businessman Zunaid Moti, which put the nation’s media freedom to the test. The court had previously prohibited the investigative journalism center from using documents received from a source in its reporting on Moti, who claimed that the records were unlawfully obtained. However, High Court Judge Roland Sutherland overturned the ruling on July 3, 2023, citing it as “an abuse of the process of court.”
