Article-Summary: 

An appeal by former African National Congress chief whip Tony Yengeni against a four-year prison sentence for fraud was postponed in the Pretoria High Court to July. Yengeni sought the delay to enable him to obtain a full copy of the record of his trial on charges related to his acceptance of a near 50% discount on a luxury 4X4 Mercedes Benz.
