JOHANNESBURG - Former UK cabinet minister Lord Peter Hain said the South African government can no longer continue to turn a blind eye to the brazen private sector corruption by the Gupta family, that
took place under Jacob Zuma's presidency.
Last year, Hain wrote to UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson demanding that his government and that of the US - freeze all state contracts with Bain and bar them from entering into any new contracts. The Zondo commission found that Bain conspired and colluded with Zuma, and former SARS head Tom Moyane, to undermine the capabilities of the revenue service, in exchange for R164 million. Bain's involvement in SARS was deemed unlawful by the commission and referred for prosecution.
