Trump issues pardon to former Republican congressman Stephen Buyer after insider trading conviction    President Donald Trump has issued a full pardon to former Republican congressman Stephen Buyer, who served nearly two years in prison after being convicted of insider trading tied to post-congressional consulting work. Buyer was sentenced in 2023 to 22 months in prison for illegal stock trades made while working as a consultant and lobbyist. He was ordered to forfeit more than $350,000 in ill-gotten gains and pay a $10,000 fine. He was released from custody in 2025 after his conviction was upheld, with the Supreme Court declining to take up his appeal earlier this year.

 Female Fraudster Convicted on 80 Counts of Corruption and Money Laundering


Polokwane Specialised Commercial Court has convicted 37-year-old Thoko Evelyn Ndlovu on 80 counts of fraud and one count of money laundering, following a lengthy investigation into a multimillion-rand scam. The conviction was handed down on Friday, 08 August 2025.


According to court records, between 2015 and 2020, Ndlovu defrauded Old Mutual Marble Hall clients of approximately R2.5 million. She misled clients into believing they were investing or buying shares through the company, but instead instructed them to deposit the money into her personal Nedbank account. The funds were then used for her personal benefit, bypassing Old Mutual entirely.


Clients only discovered the fraud after years of waiting for maturity notifications from Old Mutual. Upon inquiry, they were shocked to learn that their details were not recorded in the company’s system. Old Mutual’s internal investigation confirmed the irregularities, prompting the victims to open fraud and money laundering cases.


The docket was assigned to Sergeant Ellias Mathenji, who traced the fraudulent transactions to Ndlovu’s bank account. She was arrested in March 2023 and released on R50 000 bail until her conviction on 17 July 2025.


On Friday, 08 August 2025, Ndlovu was sentenced and declared unfit to possess firearms.
