Shares in Steinhoff International, the multinational's parent company which is dual listed on the Frankfurt and Johannesburg Stock Exchanges, have lost over 80% of its their value since this news broke that Jooste was resigning. The former Steinhoff CEO has not publicly spoken to the media since resigning. But shortly after he resigned, in what appeared to be an informal, personalised letter to colleagues - which Fin24 received from two independent sources in December - he wrote that he made "some big mistakes". Former Steinhoff chair Christo Wiese is now set to give evidence.
