Gupta-linked firm wanted Bianca Goodson to be responsible for R300m overdraft facility
Share
Johannesburg - The former chief executive of Gupta-linked Trillian Management Consulting feared having to take responsibility for a R300 million Bank of Baroda overdraft facility for generations.
Bianca Goodson told the commission of inquiry into state capture on Thursday that investment management firm Integrated Capital Management director Clive Angel, who recruited her to be Trillian Management Consulting chief executive, wanted her to sign a Bank of Baroda overdraft facility the day before she resigned with immediate effect.
She said on March 18, 2016, Angel instructed her to sign some letters and send them back to another Integrated Capital Management director Mark Chipkin.

When Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan gave evidence to the Zondo Commission of inquiry into allegations of state capture on November 20, 2018, he told the commission of a very courageous âTrillian whistleblowerâ, Mosilo Mothepu, who had given evidence to the parliamentary inquiry into Eskom on October 31, 2017.
Some two years later, on December 10 this year, Mothepu appeared at the Zondo Commission. Her evidence was led by Pule Seleka SC.
