Justice and Correctional Services Minister Ronald Lamola said South African officials wanted clarity regarding the United Arab Emirates's recent decision to deny the Gupta-extradition request.
JOHANNESBURG - Justice and Correctional Services Minister Ronald Lamola said the South Africa government had not aborted its quest to extradite Rajesh and Atul Gupta, and self-proclaimed prophet, Shepherd Bushiri.
On Friday, Lamola said the United Arab Emirates denied South Africa's request to extradite the Gupta brothers, who are facing wide-ranging fraud and corruption charges. Meanwhile, the South African government has also not been able to get co-operation from the Malawian government to extradite Bushiri, who fled the country in 2020.Lamola blasts UAE for failing to inform SA of Gupta extradition decisionThe man behind the pulpit: Who is Shepherd Bushiri?"We will still bring the Guptas back to South Africa.
"[It is the] same with the Malawian situation - [Bushiri] will also come back to South Africa. Extradition by its nature can be a protracted legal process." #GuptaFugitives | Justice and Correctional Services Minister Ronald Lamola will give an update on the extradition request for Gupta fugitives - Rajesh and Atul - after reports the brothers were spotted in Switzerland late last month. @ewnreporter pic.twitter.com/nxT6syUYb5
