Welcome to the Kaffershop, die Mafioso Legende geht weiter, fuer mich war er einer, a so called ""wheeler and dealer"".... wie wir hier sagen.
Ich glaube nun auch es war geplanter Mord weil er ein paar grob gelinkt hat und die ihr Geld verloren das er wo anders bunkerte.
Kann man vestehen, Berufs Risiko meinetwegen, da war jemand pissed off und hat ihn ausgeloescht.
Hier sind so viele Crooks, das man am besten Cape Town in Crook Town umwandeln kann.
Ich bin froh wenn ich aus der Geschichte noch heil rauskomme mit Rangy, hier kann man fast alles machen, es kuemmert keinen.
Brett CORLEONE.........and his ""Partners""................
Kebble partners ponder future

Johannesburg - The empowerment partners of mining finance house JCI will have to reflect on what has happened, as the reality that Brett Kebble is no more sinks in.
Andile Nkuhlu, a Kebble colleague at JCI and business partner, said they would use some of the insight into what Kebble was planning to chart a way forward. ![]()
"Brett had shared some of his ideas with us and we have worked and have good relations with other family members," said Nkuhlu, adding that those discussions would take place after the family and the partners had mourned the loss of the mining entrepreneur.
Kebble met his death when he was in the process of handing over the day-to-day responsibilities of Western Areas, Randgold & Exploration (R&E) and JCI, the three companies he headed until late August.
That process is going to be delayed.
The decision to step down was one of the conditions from Investec which refinanced JCI.
Even at that time, Kebble remained committed to empowerment, a cause he championed better than most white business people.
"I will remain a non-executive director of JCI and will encourage the nurturing of its empowerment portfolio and support the new leadership of the companies in the JCI Group in any way I can, in the interest of all stakeholders," said Kebble in the statement announcing his stepping down.
Nkuhlu said Kebble embraced empowerment :D..even though he had the privillege of being in a position where he could not care.
The two latest developments put the empowerment deals that Kebble concluded under the spotlight.
Long-time business associate of Kebble and executive chairperson of Matodzi Resources, Sello Rasethaba, said the empowerment partners had legal contracts with JCI and those would be honoured.
"We may not get the easy terms that Kebble offered us," said Rasethaba, adding that some deals were struck at less than prime. ![]()
Prince Booi, director of empowerment rating agency Empower Logic, said the new board was likely to review the existing deals.
"Behind each empowerment deal there are strategies driving it towards growth. The review may be to measure whether the empowerment partners have added any value," said Booi.
He said the injection of new people would mean a fresh approach to things and that could benefit the empowerment partners.
Kebble clearly had friends in business - and they were mostly in empowerment circles. ...... (Black Mafia)
Most of his critics came from the other deals he had concluded.
Even his critics this week alluded that he had a sharp mind, making him a formidable negotiator.
At the time of his death, Kebble was in the process of explaining the transaction that involved the "missing" 14,4 million shares that R&E claimed to hold in Randgold Resources.
This was the latest in a string of Kebble dealings that left some shareholders in the companies he ran disgruntled.
