ANC-linked Carrim, the ‘Cat’ and Maumela do ‘business’, or is it money laundering?

from The Lead · host Graeme Raubenheimer

He claims he was caught up in the web of doing business with people he eventually became afraid of disobeying. But the Madlana Commission has put it to ANC-affiliated businessman Suliman Carrim that he may have committed money laundering by moving funds between himself, the notorious Vusimusi “Cat” Matlala, and supreme tender don Morgan Maumela. It has been a whirlwind week of testimony in Pretoria, reports our specialist legal journalist, Karyn Maughan. In our trending topic, Health Department Director-General Sandile Buthelezi has been suspended following Global Fund corruption claims. Finally, former apartheid-era defence minister Magnus Malan went on trial for murder, On This Day in SA History.
