I’m sure former Fidentia boss, J Arthur Brown can feel the walls closing in.

That claustrophobic feeling you get as your freedom is taken from you.

He was sentenced today, to 15 years in jail after the Supreme Court of Appeal set aside his previous sentence for fraud.

The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) had appealed the R75 000 fine and suspended jail term handed down by the Western Cape High Court last May.

NPA spokesperson, Nathi Mncube had this to say of the appeal that was heard last month:

“It wasn’t just about the amount involved. It was about the impact that the commission of the crime had,” .

Brown will now immediately report to the closest prison to start his sentence. Game. Set. Match.
