StateCaptureInquiry: Trevor Manuel to testify on Mbalula's Gupta encounter
Manuel had written, in an op-ed which was published in the Daily Maverick, that Mbalula had tearfully shared during an ANC national executive committee meeting that Atul Gupta had knowledge of his appointment as minister beforehand. The former minister of sports, who is now the ANC's head of elections, had reportedly clarified that it was Ajay Gupta who had congratulated him on his appointment.
Zondo gave the same reasons he had given last year when he rejected the Gupta brothers' similar application to cross-examine a number of witnesses that had implicated them. The inquiry is also expected to hear the testimony of former communications minister Siphiwe Nyanda. It is unclear what his testimony will focus on.
