The state capture commission wants former Transnet executives who managed the parastatal in the period under its investigation to be probed further for corruption involving cash bribes it says they may have received in return for enabling capture by Gupta-linked companies. Former GCEO Brian Molefe and former GCFO Anoj Singh, along with their respective successors Siyabonga Gama and Gary Pita, were implicated by three of their former close protection officers (CPOs), who also provided driving services intermittently over some years. Commission chairperson Acting Chief Justice Raymond Zondo writes in the latest edition of his report that there is enough prima facie evidence to suggest that the four did receive cash from the Guptas in exchange for facilitating the irregular high-value contracts awarded to companies linked to them.
