I always say that, Carte Blanche should be appointed as the new SCORPIONS. Not regulated by government but protected by the Constitutional Court. Working for the people of SA and giving justice, law and order to our beloved country. Working with all Law enforcement agencies not being intimidated by politicians but standing for the people for what is right, fair, truthful and lawful. The staff put their lives on the line to provide sensitive topics and exposing more criminals then our current police minister. Keep doing what you are doing as nothing beats the truth. 🙏
This is, without a doubt, the best comment I've seen. I couldn't agree more. I've said something similar to this before, but you've gone a step further. Well said 👏🏼
Not quite. The staff member with her face covered was allegedly part of the syndicate. I love Carte Blanche but they get things wrong all the time. They're journalists, not detectives.
I appreciate Carte Blanche 🥰 On the other hand ... Be careful who you trust ... 😈 Malcolm X said : “If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed , and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” On media he said: The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that's power. So whose In change of Carte Blanche ? Whose funding their programs ? Find that out and you will know who they represent. These veteran respectable Journalists are merely employees. When Candice Owens was "going beyond her mandate" ... She was fired for speaking out .
The sad part about this is: these syndicate people get sniffed up by carte blanche, then when it lands at court, mostly it gets dismissed. And everyone walks free happy and makes more illegal money. Welcome to South Africa.
Thank you guys for upgrading your "identity hiding" for whistle-blowers - I remember complaining about it some months ago. This is responsible and commendable.
We can clearly see that all the corruption in this country has no race and no political party as they want us to believe. These criminals must do the time
that is absolute nonsense. unless you overdosed and your brain was deprived of oxygen and left your lower half paralyzed, your inability to walk wasn't caused by codeine.
This is happening in Kimberley. We have a pharmacy in Homestead its called BusyBee. Those people sell packages upon packages of sleeping tablets aswell as codeine based meds. Completely unethical it seems anyone can open a pharmacy in SA.
Carte Blanch. Go and dig a little deeper. Dr Heunis and Hamnes Strydom played rugby together many years ago. When Hannes opened his pharmacy , Dr Heunis soon moved in after. Of course they know each others dealings.
It might be wrong and or illegal but here is my story. I have lived a very healthy life for 40 odd years. then I raptured discs in my neck. No medical aid means no operation (R1,3mill). Now what? you still have to work but the constant pain kills you faster than anything. So now I have to use 20 to 30 mg per day just to cope. If it were not for the codeine, I do not know what else I would've done. Nope. Get our public health services to operate the way it should and trust me I would not need codeine.
Interesting story that will be unfolding soon as earlier this week there was the story on bizznews with O'sulliven and Hannes telling a different story. Wonder who will be suing who after the truth comes out.
No one is making a research in Durban, Durban is dying I don't know why eThekwini Municipality, they don't care about the city trade even the small tuckshops with expired food , no one is taking_care guys hawks are working for JHB & Pretoria only not KZN 😢😢 ?
Woohoo! Now we have NHI and Hanness is dead. I live in the Eastern Cape...nothing surprises me, somebody i know has been waiting for a life saving x ray since last year...nobody's going to help!
But it's not only his pharmacy doing this, I can easily name 10 that sell this in bulks and boxes, issue is the story is only interesting when it's a big person, while small pharmacies doing this too... Bezvaley, Kensington, betrams, all those pharmacy selling this nonsense to kids yet nobody doing anything.
I used to consume codeine not for a long time. The day i stopped was the day I drank codeine and I felt my body wanting to shut down completely in the middle of the high. Thats when i knew huh uh, theres something not right about this thing.
Some of the codeine ends up in Zimbabwe, there is a huge market for that product here. It's a transnational syndicate making millions of American dollars
Ek ken dr Heunis. Hy het in Middelburg gebly en jare gepraktiseer..na hy iets gedoen het wat hom laat vrees het vir regstappe,het hy PTA toe gevlug. Paar jaar daarna....loop ek vas in hom in sy praktyk....en ek het gese:"Die wereld is maar klein ne Dr? In sy plek het n ander dr oorgeneem in Mdb....dis skokkend om te sien hy het nie opgehou met hierdie dinge nie
Unfortunately SAHPRA is as corrupt at Hannes Strydom, probably a bit cash to the right person will allow Hannes to go international. Sunny South Africa for many shady people.
I find it hard to understand why they don't just stick to policy and run business in a clean manner. They are already allowed to sell coedine at specific amounts per regulations but greed is driving them. That greed then leads to their downfall.
With the new look of Carte Blanche, they unfortunately got rid off all the last remaining investigation journalists worth their salt. This story tarnished the image of a rugby legend and only serves to give credit to the real criminals.
Oh I see, so just because he is a rugby legend, he can never do illegal things. Cartle Blanche showed you the proof, like they have done with all of their journalists of the past 30 years your assertion is weak and based on fairy tale rugby myths. We always say you can see who has something to hide by looking at how they react to CB. And Hannes has all the tell tail signs of someone who has something to hide. This is not the first CB story to tough his sphere. He has been implicated before.
The fact is that the employees who stole (R50m) from the pharmacy, reported the owner at Carte Blanche for illicit trade to cover their thefts.....a clever ploy, and Carte Blanche fell for their trick!!! Not very clever CB....this may sink your "investigative journalism"......bye bye Carte Blanche, I've always appreciated your reports.....not any longer!!!
Personally i think CB investigating journalists are unprofessional and unqualified , in this case of Codeine Tinei could easily avoid them because they have no search warrant to his private storage facility neither does he have any obligations to expose his business to mere public television channel investigators. Same as the Liquid Gold issue , their approach to Morris aka Silent Killer was unprofessional and not well planned thats why he walk away .Remember these people daily they eat same table with law enforcement agency , lawyers and judiciary. They are taught daily how to handle people like you .Trust me one day CB employees will land CB in a crazy lawsuit if they dont handle things carefully.

and sadly now he is dead, and truth will never now come out
Zuma comes to mind every time I hear that word 'corruption ' I see his face.
The police are just not doing enough. SA has become a criminal hub, and it is worsening by the second. Add corruption to the mix, there's no hope.

The most crazy thing about this episode is that they found a blockbusters thats still open 😳
I was also surprised 😂😂😂😂

🤣🤣🤣insane

"It was almost like he couldn't hear me" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hannes Strydom died in a car accident on 19 November 2023...Six weeks after this aired, I find that somewhat suspicious.
not only that, now no further investigation will happen, because belive u me many cops are involved
He was bumped off by another gangster.
Something isn't adding up.
Or maybe me Karma
@@magdalenechristie6453 Nah he was murdered
What's more surprising is video shop is still running in 2023 🙃
Sunnyside is full of very poor immigrants
I finally stopped codeine (ten years), now I can't walk. The long term damage lies in me.
You for REAL????
For Real.
@@hugotylxr4015
that is absolute nonsense. unless you overdosed and your brain was deprived of oxygen and left your lower half paralyzed, your inability to walk wasn't caused by codeine.
IF you say so. Only one way to find out. I thought you died. @@LILREMAlNS
Fairytale propaganda 😂
Why is it necessary for investigative journalists to do the police’s work?
Coz we live in a country that is beyond fukced up.
Sadly their more qualified than our police
Anc has made every department a joke
Because police can't do their job
Well, for one, some police do not want to do police work
these guys churn out bangers
I hope the pharmacy councel will do something about it.
They do buggerall
ruclips.net/video/UIWPwUMyQew/видео.htmlsi=Q3wHSGQcb2mB5CuN
They won't. I'm a pharmacist and that council is useless.
He'll shut them off, through bribe, you can see he's monied
The biznews interview with Paul O Sullivan and Hannes tells a different story. What does Carte Blanche say about that?
Yes posted this comment 3 weeks ago. O' Sulivan has now broke all contact with Strydom.
I know that pharmacy for over 15 yrs, I saw all this myself.. carte blanche 100% right..
Perhaps you should look into how he died @carte Blanche.
Maybe look at the biz news interview about this. It seems employees were running a big scam and defrauded the owner of millions
Yes this one
ruclips.net/video/UIWPwUMyQew/видео.htmlsi=ILUxHGUd8QbcWqYc
A lot has since happened.
This is happening in Kimberley. We have a pharmacy in Homestead its called BusyBee. Those people sell packages upon packages of sleeping tablets aswell as codeine based meds. Completely unethical it seems anyone can open a pharmacy in SA.
And?
And I'm sure the police in the area know that very well. They'll tell you they are waiting for the public to report them,😢.
They just got their protection fee monthly, and allow them to do their thing
Hold on. There's a video shop 😄
I was once addicted to this for straight ten years. Now I'm free

Interesting, please come up with the follow up to this story
He passed away in a car accident on 19 Nov, Google it
Looks like things finally caught up with Hannes
Just saw that Hannes Strydom died yesterday… apparently a car accident in Mpumalanga
Faking his death
I say don't blame the Pharmacy, blame the manufacturers and medicine reps.
How is he supplied that volume?
People buy what they want. That’s their choice. I don’t see a problem
Because he's licensed as a wholesaler. He just decided to bend the rules in terms of who he sells to.
in the kasi they call this Spova, and its been used heavily in Soweto
In the coloured community they call it leaning you see all these young kids walking around with 2l Kingsley

True, the state is not doing enough - not only in the health department but every single department.

What about the use of GrandPa powders in Gautang?😢😢😢
they won't make grandpa an issue because it's thr poorest who are addicted. They are not big money, therefore not important. sad!
@@pottery68Grandpa is addictive? Where did you get your B. Pharm? That is rare!😂
Here in the Netherlands you have to have a script for codine . Very expensive
So Mouton offers him money in lieu of sales discrepancies? Isnt that a red flag?
Where is the video shop? How I miss them!
This is happening in Bloemfontein, Small street.
The strydom dude just died or should I say he pulled a Gavin Watson on us?
Faking his death
He will skip the country soon
Paul O'Sulivan and BizNews have a very different side of the story, I am more inclined to believe their version
U crazy
What is that
Codeine have huge market in Zimbabwe.
So why didn't the Police impound the Ferrari?!
To be honest alcohol has the same effect too

Hannes Strydom passed away last night on the N4 - Motor Vehicle Accident
😂😂😂😂😂they pulling a fast one he is out the country already
What if you've a real cough let them sell😂😂
Just heard about his passing. Don't know if this is a coincidence or what.😮
Yeah, funny timing. 🤔
He isn’t dead he is a big criminal
now the truth will never come out
Change those shoes boss. Eish.
You see it’s because of people like you that this country is the way it is. You worry too much of irrelevant things.
He upset this lady 😂😂😂she letting the cat out the bag
The most surprising thing about this story is that a blockbuster video store still exists.
Govan is min. I like his style.....Carte Blanche ....you guys rock
I want you to know that such reporting may expose pharmacies and certain individuals but it deose little to curb the illegal sale of Codeine.
So strange that Hannes was killed an mva
Did Carte Blanche test the sale of Codeine meds at other Pharmacies across South Africa otherwise its simply selective journalism
How are there still video shops? Where is this? When is this? 🤣
Carltonville
2023
😂
Hi am I allowed to share this content on my TikTok?
Maybe CB should have also tried to buy codeine products from other franchise pharmacies (Clicks..Dischem etc)...it may be for interesting viewing.
pHARMa.... from top to bottom a very shady industry.... but only the bottom layer gets investigated
Woohoo! Now we have NHI and Hanness is dead. I live in the Eastern Cape...nothing surprises me, somebody i know has been waiting for a life saving x ray since last year...nobody's going to help!
Klippies, Coke and Codeine sounds like a vibe
But it's not only his pharmacy doing this, I can easily name 10 that sell this in bulks and boxes, issue is the story is only interesting when it's a big person, while small pharmacies doing this too...
Bezvaley, Kensington, betrams, all those pharmacy selling this nonsense to kids yet nobody doing anything.

Regulations don't buy Ferraris. People do these things cause they always want more, more of everything, whatever the costs.
Crime as no colour, that's all I will say
Video store in 2022 is suspicious 😅

What if Carte Blanche is lying?
With the new look of Carte Blanche, they unfortunately got rid off all the last remaining investigation journalists worth their salt. This story tarnished the image of a rugby legend and only serves to give credit to the real criminals.
So you can then post your evidence showing the rugby legend is innocent and Cart Blanche evidence is incorrect? That would really help.
Oh I see, so just because he is a rugby legend, he can never do illegal things. Cartle Blanche showed you the proof, like they have done with all of their journalists of the past 30 years
your assertion is weak and based on fairy tale rugby myths. We always say you can see who has something to hide by looking at how they react to CB.
