Roland Williams out of jail after only two months of four-year prison term

Former Nelson Mandela Bay municipal communications director Roland Williams has been released on bail, just two months into his four-year prison term for fraud.

His wife, Shahnaz, said she had learnt a hard lesson while the father of her children was in prison — the importance of being financially independent.

Until recently, the family was known for throwing flashy parties and leading extravagant lifestyles.

On Monday, however, Williams described them as destitute.
