SAA's head of sales and marketing Carla da Silva has resigned and will be exiting the state-owned company soon, The Citizen has learnt from reliable internal sources.
Da Silva's resignation comes after civil action and a criminal complaint were laid against her and several other SAA staffers by competing carrier and her former employer, Airlink.
The action came after alleged industrial espionage and theft of intellectual property of sensitive commercial information off Airlink's computer servers.
Wayne Duvenage of the Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse (Outa) welcomed the news, should it be confirmed.
"If Carla da Silva has resigned, this is the first step with regards to doing the right thing. However, this does not exonerate the CEO and others within SAA of their responsibilities. In other words, why is the CEO not being held accountable for his role in knowing what was happening and not taking action at the outset?"
