| | Shaik still faces 15 years |
 | | Shaik had been sentenced to 15 years in prison on each of the two corruption counts, and another three years for fraud. |
 | | On the fraud charge, Shaik was granted leave to challenge a finding that he had discussed with his auditors the irregular write-off of loans, some of which had been to Zuma. |
 | | Should Shaik fail in his bid to the SCA on the other two counts, Squires said, there would be no merits for interfering with the sentences he had imposed. |
