Ramaphosa and Geingob avoid Phala Phala in bilateral talks: President Cyril Ramaphosa and Namibian counterpart Hage Geingob did not discuss Phala Phala at the Union Buildings in Pretoria on Thursday, Ramaphosa confirmed during a media briefing.
justice minister Ronald Lamola told journalists the investigation into the 2020 theft of foreign currency from Ramaphosa's farm had hit a snag.Several law-enforcement agencies are investigating the matter. The money came from the sale of buffalo to a Sudanese businessman.
In a statement released in June 2020, the government said it had closely followed media reports and a statement by the Namibian police force concerning a request for mutual legal assistance in respect of David Imanuwela, the alleged mastermind behind the robbery, who they had apprehended.“We received a request. The request was not compliant with our own laws in relation to mutual legal assistance,” Lamola said.
