Cricket South Africa (CSA) chief executive Gerald Majola refused to speak out on the bonus controversy but claimed his innocence yesterday. Majola had said that he would be returning more than one million rand he received as a bonus from funds provided by then Indian Premier League commissioner Lalit Modi for agreeing to host the second edition of the event in South Africa. An internal audit revealed that Majola and 39 other CSA employees shared the equivalent of $641,000 in bonuses from funds earned during the 2009 IPL and last season's Champions Trophy. <br /><br />CSA said that Majola decided to repay his share of the money, which was around $198,000. CSA appointed a review committee, chaired by Pius Langa, a former chief justice of South Africa, to investigate the issue before its financial statements are presented at the annual meeting.u00a0 "I can't speak on the matter," Majola told eNews. "Everything I do is for the interests of cricket, and even if I had to pay back money, I was doing it in the interests of cricket and nothing else," he said.<br />
