Markus Jooste faces charges relating to accounting violations, which took place in Germany. South Africa's Financial Sector Conduct Authority fined the former Steinhoff CEO  and three associates a total of R241m for insider trading-related breaches ahead of the dramatic collapse of the company's share price in late 2017.  South Africans were outraged when Jooste wasn't arrested for his crimes, which wiped out fortunes, including those of Christo Wiese. Steinhoff is currently working on agreements to settle multi-jurisdictional claims against it, and it seems Jooste has his own international litigations to contend with.-  Melani Nathan
