The Complaint was that in referring to a corruption scandal in Lesotho the Respondent Broadcaster televisionhad omitted to mention that Schneider SA had not been involved in the corruption committed by Spie Batignolles. Although the corporate identity of Spie Batignolles had remained unaltered, it was negligent to have omitted the detail of the involvement of Schneider SA and the consequences of the merger, which led to the name change of Spie Batignolles to Schneider Electric SA. This detail was available in a Plea which was submitted to the High Court in Lesotho and was a public document. 

Complaint upheld. Correction ordered to be broadcast.
