Opposition parties are up in arms over a SARS finding that there is no record that Hazim Mustafa, the Sudanese businessman who paid $580 000 in cash to President Cyril Ramaphosa's Phala Phala farm, declared the money he had brought into the country.
Opposition parties are incensed by a SARS finding that the money paid to President Cyril Ramaphosa's Phala Phala farm had not been declared. The president has been adamant that the allegations against him are"without any merit".
"That is tax evasion, and tax evasion is stealing from the poor. We cannot have a president who steals from the poor because the amount of power that he has, which includes the appointing of Cabinet ministers, and judges, among others, means we need a president who is beyond reproach," said Zungula.
In a statement, the red berets said,"it is now an undeniable fact that at least 580 000 US dollars were brought into South Africa illegally, and were not declared to SARS or the South African Reserve Bank ". In response to the Promotion of Access to Information Act request DA leader John Steenhuisen filed in December 2022, SARS said it could not find any record that Mustafa declared the cash he had brought into the country.
In terms of PAIA, SARS also attached an affidavit by the responsible official, in this case, legal specialist: corporate legal services Siyabonga Nkabinde, who searched for the records.
