M&G hangout: The Guptas’ intelligence dealings

M&g Hangout: The Guptas' Intelligence Dealings
Just how much of an influence did the controversial Gupta family have over our state intelligence?

Just how much of an influence did the controversial Gupta family have over our state intelligence?

These are the questions being asked as reports have started to circulate about a link between the controversial businesspeople who are closely tied to President Jacob Zuma, and the abrupt departure of three senior intelligence unit heads in 2010.

It is alleged that Gibson Njenje, Moe Shaik and Jeff Maqetuka resigned two years ago after they warned State Security Minister Siyabonga Cwele that the Guptas posed a threat to national security and the credibility of the state. 

On Friday, the Mail & Guardian published more about this explosive story.
