 Corey Feldman hospitalized after mid-flight medical emergency at LAX  Actor Corey Feldman was hospitalized after experiencing a medical emergency during a flight and being taken directly from Los Angeles International Airport to a hospital, according to his publicist. The 54-year-old actor reportedly became ill while traveling from Chicago to Los Angeles on Monday. A doctor on board evaluated him during the flight before he was met upon arrival and transported for further treatment. He remained in the hospital overnight for observation. Early speculation suggested the issue could be related to gallstones, but his publicist said that possibility was ruled out by medical staff. Feldman was still undergoing evaluation and awaiting MRI results as of Tuesday morning.

S. A: HOW R2 BILLION MEANT FOR HEALTHCARE WAS STOLEN. (PHOTO).


 How R2 Billion Meant for Healthcare was Stolen


The Special Investigating Unit (SIU) has revealed shocking levels of fraud and corruption at Tembisa Hospital, where more than R2 billion meant for healthcare services was looted through coordinated criminal syndicates.


The SIU’s interim report shows that at least three major syndicates, involving both officials and service providers, were behind the theft. The funds were diverted through fake procurement processes, money laundering schemes, and fraudulent contracts that never delivered any goods or services to the hospital.


The Syndicates

 • Maumela Syndicate: Linked to businessman Hangwani Morgan Maumela, this group allegedly stole over R816 million. Assets worth more than R520 million, including luxury properties in Bantry Bay and Sandton, as well as high-end cars like Lamborghinis and Bentleys, have been traced and frozen.

 • Mazibuko Syndicate: Connected to Rudolph Mazibuko, this syndicate handled contracts worth R283 million, with assets of at least R42 million identified.

 • Syndicate X: Managed fraudulent deals worth nearly R596 million, with assets of about R150 million uncovered.


Smaller groups of service providers were also linked to irregular payments running into millions of rands.


Implicated Officials


At least 15 current and former officials from the Gauteng Department of Health and Tembisa Hospital have been implicated in corruption, collusion, and bid rigging. The SIU has already made 116 disciplinary referrals, with more expected as investigations continue.


How the Money Was Stolen


The syndicates used fake procurement documents to bypass tender rules by keeping contracts below R500,000. This “three-quote system” was manipulated with front companies and fake bidders to create the illusion of competition. In many cases, no goods were delivered to the hospital at all.


Recoveries and Action


The SIU has referred cases worth R42 million to the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) and is working with the Asset Forfeiture Unit to freeze properties, cars, and other luxury assets bought with stolen money. Civil proceedings are also being prepared to recover funds and hold those involved accountable.


Ongoing Investigation


The SIU says the investigation is complex and will continue until November 2027. The unit has pledged to protect whistleblowers and investigators who are helping expose the corruption.


The report highlights how weak oversight, collusion by officials, and deliberate abuse of procurement systems robbed vulnerable patients of vital healthcare resources.
