Almost all of the R1.5 billion investment by JSE-listed Afristrat Investment Holdings Limited in Frankfurt-listed MyBucks SA, a microlender in several southern African countries that collapsed and is now in liquidation, has been lost.
Afristrat owns a 42.39% stake in MyBucks after originally providing start-up capital loans to MyBucks but being forced to convert its loans into equity.
Afristrat was previously known as Ecsponent Limited.
Preference shareholders in Ecsponent had little option but to opt in May 2020 to a restructuring of the group that resulted in R2.3 billion in preference shareholder debt being converted into equity in Ecsponent.

MyBucks was founded by former Blue Financial Services boss Dave van Niekerk. However, Van Niekerk has not been involved with MyBucks for several years.
Investigations
Afristrat CEO George Manyere told Moneyweb last week that Afristrat has launched about five forensic investigations in total into the operations of MyBucks.
Manyere said three of those investigations – two in South Africa and another in Botswana – have been completed.
Afristrat is in the final stages of getting the final forensic investigation report in Zambia and has commenced with a forensic investigation in Eswatini as well, he said.

“The operations of MyBucks were quite expansive, with [operations in] 11 or 12 African countries and three outside of Africa, specifically Australia, Poland and Spain.
“So it [the forensic investigations] was quite an expansive process and almost 90% of Ecsponent or Afristrat’s investment funds were invested in MyBucks either as equity or as loans and all that money was lost with the collapse of MyBucks, which is now in bankruptcy,” he said.
Loss and litigation
Afristrat disclosed in May 2022 that it lost in excess of R1.5 billion of equity value in MyBucks and its subsidiaries through debt, which was provided under the pretext of growing the MyBucks loan book.
However, Afristrat said this debt was substantially diverted to meet MyBucks management overheads and interest expenses from other borrowings being converted into equity in MyBucks.
This led to Afristrat’s board:
Instructing its attorneys in South Africa and Botswana to institute civil claims totalling R250 million against the responsible former executives at the company and/or MyBucks; and
Instituting an R800 million claim against MyBucks.
Afristrat added that its board is considering its options to potentially also institute civil claims against the previous management, directors and auditors of MyBucks “where considered appropriate”.
Manyere confirmed last week that the claim against MyBucks had been launched in Luxembourg with the receiver who is handling the bankruptcy process for MyBucks, while the litigation process in Botswana has already started and is “quite advanced”.
He said the litigation in South Africa has also started and a commission of inquiry, granted by a high court and chaired by a retired judge, is also currently underway.
“But I think what is critically important for us in this situation is to put in an appropriate liquid facility to fund all these processes. So we are also seized with that situation,” he said.
Default
The liabilities of Afristrat resulted in the company announcing on 12 May that it will be unable to pay any interest or capital due and payable to holders of notes with immediate effect which, in terms of Condition 16 of the programme memorandum, will constitute an event of default.
Afristrat said it will also make an offer to current holders of preference shares to convert to ordinary shares in the company.
Manyere said last week Afristrat is considering all the various options to improve the company’s liquidity but believes it is critical to first clean up its balance sheet.
“That is why we did announce that they will be approaching our remaining creditors and lender with a proposal to convert their debt into equity.
“We believe that is critical in us successfully being able to improve that liquidity position because before that balance sheet clean-up, it will be a lot more challenging to bring in any other liquidity solution. So that process is also currently being worked on,” he said.
Manyere declined to comment on the initial reaction of Afristrat creditors to the company’s liquidity improvement proposal, stating: “We are still engaging.”
Manyere was also guarded in his comment about the prospects of Afristrat recovering anything from its R250 million civil claim against the responsible former executives at Afristrat and/or MyBucks in South Africa and Botswana or the R800 million claim against MyBucks.
“These are all processes that are being handled legally but I can’t comment on the prospects. It’s is going to be tough because obviously it’s very clear that MyBucks has totally collapsed.
“There will be maybe some recoveries here and there but I can’t speak at this point what exactly would be the probability of recovery,” he said.
JSE notice
Afristrat last week found itself on the wrong side of the JSE, with the bourse issuing a notice about the late submission of its provisional annual financial statements.
It warned that if Afristat fails to publish these results by 31 July, its listing on the JSE may be suspended.
Manyere confirmed last week that Afristrat will be unable to meet the JSE deadline.
“We will definitely publish I think sometime soon but definitely not by July 31,” he said.
Manyere said the reason for the delay is because the company has been “working on a plan to save the business of Afristrat because of the impact of the significant losses we suffered with MyBucks”.
“In the last couple of months, we have been focused on undertaking various forensic investigations in South Africa, Botswana, Eswatini and Zambia primarily.
“They are now nearing completion so it did impact the timeframe for the auditors to start.
“That audit has started but, also at the same time, we are working on a plan to improve our liquidity position in order for us to complete all these various workstreams.
“So yes, we will be delayed in releasing the financials but the audit process has started and we should have that completed in the third quarter [of 2022],” he said.
Resignations
Afristrat announced last week that Tertius de Kock, the company’s chief financial officer and an executive director, has tendered his resignation effective from 26 July as a director although he will serve a one-month notice period.
Manyere said De Kock’s resignation was not related to the late publication of Afristat’s financial results.
De Kock’s resignation follows that of Yvonne Maitin, who resigned as an independent non- executive director effective from 7 June due to “her other work commitments”.
An analyst who did not want to be named said investors and lenders generally get co-opted into converting their investment or loans into equity on the basis of a plan by a company but it means they give up their rights in the hope there is a turnaround, which rarely pans out.

The mission of Shadow World
Investigations is to detail and expose
the illicit and/or unethical corruption of
government by corporate actors and
their enablers. We do so by highlighting
the impact of the blurred line between
business and politics on democracy,
human rights, the rule of law, the
environment and just and equitable
development. This exposure serves to hold

GUPTA ENTERPRISE
2.1. RACKETEERING AND THE GUPTA
FAMILY ‘ENTERPRISE’
1. In Section 2 of our first submission on the Estina/Vrede Dairy Project
case, we set out our reading of the Gupta State Capture project as a form
of racketeering undertaken by what we call the Gupta enterprise. We do
not repeat that discussion here, but humbly refer the Commission to it
so that this submission can be read in light of our arguments.
2.2. UNDERSTANDING THE GUPTA
ENTERPRISE
2. In Section 2 of our first submission on the Estina/Vrede Dairy Project
case, we outlined our understanding of the shape, nature and content of
the Gupta enterprise in general terms. We do not repeat it in detail here.
However, we humbly direct the Commission to the relevant section in
that submission so that the below can be understood in context.
20 – SUBMISSION: GUPTA ENTERPRISE & THE CAPTURE OF TRANSNET
3. Nevertheless, it is useful to reiterate certain key features of the Gupta
enterprise. In particular, we note that:
a. The Gupta family enterprise exists de facto not de jure;
b. The existence of the enterprise is inferred from observing a pattern
of racketeering activity;
c. The enterprise can (and does in this instance) engage in both
legitimate business activity and criminal endeavours;
d. The object of the enterprise was to generate the maximum benefit
for the enterprise itself, the Gupta family and its employees and
associates;
e. The legitimate businesses included in the Gupta enterprise were used,
inter alia, to facilitate racketeering activities, including disguising
criminal activities behind a veneer of respectability or absorbing and
distributing funds derived from criminal activity;
f. The enterprise consists of a wide range of individuals, companies and
other associations, some of which appear to be, on the surface, separate
and distinct service providers but who were, instead, employees
or associates of the racketeering enterprise ultimately taking de
facto direction from the Gupta family or their representatives and
associates;
g. These employees and associates must, by logical inference, include
those government officials and state employees we identify further
below, who were instrumental in awarding the Gupta enterprise
government contracts.
4. Based on the available evidence, we have identified a number of
individuals and companies, all part of the Gupta family enterprise, that
participated or were ‘activated’ in relation to the conceptualisation,
initiation, and management of the Transnet capture project, including
the process of laundering and integrating proceeds of crime. Short
biographies of each party are given in the dramatis personae attached as
an Annexure to this submission. We draw attention to them here, where
we have additionally bolded ‘key players.’

5. In Section 5 below we describe how Regiments Asia and Tequesta
Group received hundreds of millions of dollars in payments from China
South Rail into HSBC bank accounts. We have been granted access to
HSBC banking documentation by the Organised Crime and Corruption
Reporting Project (OCCRP)2
on condition of retaining the anonymity
of the original source. These documents show hundreds of payments

22 – SUBMISSION: GUPTA ENTERPRISE & THE CAPTURE OF TRANSNET
from the Regiments Asia and Tequesta accounts. It is possible that the
majority of these payments formed the first step in an elaborate money
laundering exercise. We cannot, however, confirm this without further
documentation. Nevertheless, we provide, as Annexure QQ, a list of all
recipients of payments from the Regiments Asia and Tequesta Group
accounts, some of which may, upon further investigation, be considered
part of, or beneficiaries of, the Gupta enterprise:
2.4. THE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN
THE GUPTA ENTERPRISE AND KEY
TRANSNET CONTRACTS
6. Extensive forensic investigations have been undertaken into a number
of major contracts placed by Transnet, in particular the constituent
contracts (and ancillary service contracts) that made up the 1064
locomotive contracts. Considerable evidence has also been led before the
Commission about irregularities in the award of contracts by Transnet.
We do not traverse that evidence here, suffice to note that there is
incredibly strong prima facie evidence showing that certain individuals
materially intervened in multiple Transnet contracts with the effect
that contracts were bedevilled by irregularities and were directed to
seemingly pre-chosen contractors. Moreover, these interventions were
made to the obvious and substantial prejudice of Transnet and public
finances in general, inflating costs and preventing a fair and honest
assessment of which contractors offered best value to the state.
7. A number of characters and committees were repeatedly implicated
in this process, including Anoj Singh, Brian Molefe, Siyabonga Gama,
Malusi Gigaba, Thamsanqa Jiyane, Mogokare Richard Seleke, Lindiwe
Mdletshe and Iqbal Sharma. The conduct of a number of these
individuals and the recommended criminal or other disciplinary action
appropriate to their behaviour is set out comprehensively in the MNS
Report.
8. The conduct of the individuals dealt with in the MNS report must be
read against the emails and documents emanating from the #Guptaleaks.
Indeed, the #Guptaleaks shows that many of these individuals had close
and material connections to, or engagements with, the broader Gupta
enterprise.
9. Considering that it was the Gupta enterprise that benefited handsomely
from kickbacks related to Transnet contracts, we submit that the
most plausible explanation was that these individuals had developed
relationships with the Gupta enterprise and, in so doing, abused their
official functions to benefit the Gupta enterprise. Properly understood,
these individuals were party to the broader racketeering activities of
the Gupta enterprise and can, indeed, be considered de facto members,
associates or partners of the Gupta enterprise.
10. The relationship between key Transnet employees and the Gupta
enterprise has been exhaustively articulated by media articles and
through investigations undertaken by the Public Protector and the
private audit firms (Werkmans, Fundudzi, MNS) that have completed
audits of the 1064 locomotive procurement. As such, we do not address
Section 2 – 23
these relationships in detail here, as the Commission is already no doubt
aware of them, and of the underlying material upon which the extensive
reporting has been based to date.
11. In brief, however, it is useful to bear in mind, when considering the
materials related the money laundering systems used by the Gupta
enterprise, the following salient facts:
a. Brian Molefe was a ‘good friend’ of the Gupta family and visited the
Gupta’s Saxonwold compound on multiple occasions, and made and
received large number of phone calls from Ajay Gupta, and exchanged
small number of phone calls and texts with Ronica Ragavan, between
August 2015 and April 2016;
b. An extended chain of email correspondence shows that senior CSR
employees were writing to Brian Molefe about tendering for Transnet
contracts, and forwarding this correspondence to both Worlds
Window and Gupta enterprise employees. One of the individuals
copied into the email correspondence would later be involved in an
email exchange in which a ledger of kickbacks to be paid by CSR
related to three Transnet contracts was distributed;
c. Molefe, subsequent to his period at Transnet, was appointed the
CEO of Eskom, in which position he further intervened in internal
processes to the benefit of the Gupta enterprise;
d. Iqbal Sharma, who played a key role in managing and manipulating
the award of Transnet contracts, had numerous direct and clear
connections to the Gupta enterprise, including as the joint owner
of Elgasolve Pty Ltd alongside Salim Essa, through which both held
shares in numerous other companies such as VR Laser Services,
which has also been implicated in the capture of Denel;
e. Anoj Singh, who also played a key role in manipulating Transnet
processes to the benefit of the Gupta enterprise, stayed at the Oberoi
Hotel in Dubai on multiple occasions. The expenses were paid for
by the Gupta enterprise. Singh frequently travelled at the same time
as Tony Gupta and Salim Essa. #Guptaleaks records show that the
Guptas opened a shell company in UAE, Venus Limited, which was
transferred into Singh’s name by Vivek Sharma during a trip both
made to Dubai. Internal Gupta enterprise accounting ledgers suggest
that Singh was given AED200,000 by the Gupta enterprise during a
trip to Dubai.
f. Siyabonga Gama stayed at the Oberoi in Dubai for two nights
between the 22nd and 24th of January 2016, which was paid with
credits bought by Aakash Garg, an in-law to the Gupta family. During
the trip, Gama met with Salim Essa;
g. Mokgoro Richard Seleke served on the notorious Board Acquisitions
and Disposal Committee (BADC) that played a major role in
manipulating Transnet contracts to the benefit of the Gupta
enterprise and CSR. Seleke was subsequently appointed the Deputy
Director General at the Department of Public Enterprises after
forwarding his CV to Duduzane Zuma. Seleke, who had previously
held numerous civil service positions in the Free State, listed Peter
Thabethe and Mosebenzi Zwane, both of whom were implicated in
the Estina matter, as references on the CV he forwarded to Zuma.</p><p><br /></p><p>This submission sets out
how the Gupta enterprise
secured billions of Rand in
illicit and unearned fees and
payments through large
Transnet contracts; and,
most importantly, the various
elaborate money laundering
systems that they employed
to hide their money aided by
major international enablers.</p><p>Summary – 11
Confirm the extent of the Bank of
Baroda’s complicity in the extensive
money laundering networks established
by the Gupta enterprise and the Worlds
Window network;
Question HSBC to seek clarity on
whether HSBC informed any authorities
as to the nature of payments made into
and out of Tequesta and Regiments
Asia’s HSBC accounts in Hong Kong, all
of which should have raised major red
flags;
Urgently request that HSBC trace any
and all payments made by Tequesta and
Regiments Asia into any other accounts
held with HSBC;
Further investigate payments made
by Liebherr Cranes to the Gupta
enterprise, and, in particular, question
why Liebherr Cranes thought it fit to
make payments to a corporate shell in
Dubai with no infrastructure, no online
presence, a sole Indian director, and no
notable connections to South Africa.</p><p>9
24. In tranche 2, Liebherr paid $212 006.01 to Accurate Investments on the
17th of February 2014. This was ultimately paid out to:
a. Linkway Trading, a Gupta enterprise company based in South Africa,
which was paid $599 327, made up of the $212 006 from Liebherr
commingled with other money flows;
25. In tranche 3, Liebherr paid $371 105.83 to Accurate Investments on the
15th of April 2014, which was ultimately paid out to:
a. Oakbay Resources, which was paid $400 000 on the 29th of April
2014, made up of $371 105.83 from Liebherr commingled with other
money flows;
26. In tranche 4, Liebherr paid $1 105 368.16 to Accurate Investments in
three payments made in May 2014. This was ultimately paid out to:
a. Brookfield Consultants, who were paid $5m on the 28th of May 2014,
made up of $1 105 368.16 from Liebherr commingled with other
funds, including money from JJ Trading. Brookfield Consultants was
a US-based company controlled by relatives of the Gupta family.
27. In tranche 5, Liebherr paid $638 950 to Accurate Investments in two
payments in October and December 2014. The accounting records
revealed in the #Guptaleaks ended shortly after these payments were
made. Tracing the ultimate disposition of these payments is therefore
not possible based on documents in our possession.
28. In July 2017, after the payments from Liebherr to Accurate Investments
was disclosed, Liebherr announced that it was to appoint an internal
investigation into the matter. In October 2017, Liebherr announced that
it was satisfied, based on its internal investigation, that the transactions
were ‘legally sound’ and did not violate any applicable laws, although
it admitted that the company’s ‘due diligence process might have been
implemented in a more stringent manner.’ Liebherr further noted that
the use of agents such as Accurate Investments was ‘common in the sales
process for expenditure projects.’
29. Based on the information at our disposal, this explanation does not seem
sufficient. We urge the Commission to investigate this matter further. In
particular, we urge the Commission to seek Liebherr’s explanation for
the payments to Accurate in light of the fact that:
a. Liebherr was bidding for a large capital project from a State-owned
entity based on an open tender;
b. Accurate Investments was little more than a corporate shell based
in Dubai with a single Indian director, which had little to no
infrastructure, online presence or any obvious connections to South
Africa;
c. Accurate Investments was, at all times, ultimately controlled by the
Gupta enterprise;
d. The only payments recorded into Accurate Investments accounts for
the period under consideration were made by Liebherr Cranes and
an unknown company called VK Trading Hong Kong;
e. The only payments made out of Accurate Investments were made to
Gupta enterprise entities.</p><p>THE FIRST LAUNDROMAT: THE WORLDS WINDOW GROUP
7. The Gupta enterprise entered into a number of contractual agreements
with CSR, CNR, CRRC and ZPMCC through which it was paid billions
of Rand, for which it performed no services beyond exerting its political
influence to ensure that CSR and CNR were awarded lucrative contracts.
8. The Gupta enterprise entered into these contracts through front
companies and nominees across two phases of the scheme. In the first
phase, the Gupta enterprise teamed up with the Worlds Window Group
of companies, based in India. The ‘flagship’ of the Worlds Window Group
was majority controlled by the group Chairman, Piyoosh Goyal, while
International Metal and Steel BV (IMSBV) owned the remaining 49%.
IMSBV is a wholly-owned subsidiary of European Metals Recycling
based in Liverpool.
9. The #Guptaleaks show that from at least 2010, the Worlds Window
network of companies entered into a series of complex financial and
criminal arrangements with the Gupta enterprise. This included
engaging in numerous money laundering loan-back schemes, utilising a
company by the name of Arctos it formed in South Africa. Our research
shows that the South African branch of the Bank of Baroda had full
insight into the reality of certain loan-back schemes, and was totally
complicit in how it operated.
10. Our research shows that one of the companies that participated in the
Gupta enterprise-Worlds Window money laundering network was
Estina, which was used to funnel funds as part of a loan-back scheme.
Estina was famously used by the Gupta enterprise to steal government
funds from the Vrede Dairy Project. Estina was used in the Gupta
enterprise-Worlds Window Group money laundering scheme in 2011, a
year before it participated in the Vrede Dairy Project. This provides even
further proof that Estina was merely a front company controlled by the
Gupta enterprise that was used in multiple criminal endeavours.</p><p>THE SECOND LAUNDROMAT: THE HONG KONG MACHINE
12. For reasons unknown, the Gupta enterprise and Worlds Window Group
ceased collaborating on the Transnet kickbacks by 2015. As a result,
CNR, CSR and CRRC entered into new agreements with two Gupta
enterprise front companies, Regiments Asia and Tequesta Group based
in Hong Kong. Hong Kong records show that both of these companies
were formed in March 2015, and Gupta ally and partner, Salim Essa,
was the sole director. In November 2016, Salim Essa stepped down as
director to be replaced by Aashika Singh, who the #Guptaleaks show
had a financial relationship with the Gupta enterprise.
13. Banking documents show that Regiments Asia and Tequesta operated
bank accounts with HSBC in Hong Kong, into which over a hundred
million dollars were paid by CSR, CNR and CRRC. Our analysis of the
banking documents shows that Tequesta Group received funds totalling
$62 416 299, of which:
a. $11 288 092.75 was paid by CNR;
b. $2 704 159 was paid by CRRC;
c. $43 456 242 was paid by CSR; and
d. $1 021 650 was paid by unknown sources
14. Our analysis shows that Regiments Asia’s HSBC Hong Kong account
received a total of $83 783 437.41, of which:
a. $8 622 906 was paid by CNR
b. $14 757 788.75 was paid by CRRC; and
c. $45 750 456.75 was paid by CSR
d. $18 120 982.50 was paid by Da Lian [a China North Rail subsidiary]
15. Calculations by amaBhungane have shown that these amounts accorded
exactly with what was expected to be paid to the Gupta enterprise
through contracts it entered into with CSR, CNR and CRRC.
16. The payments made into the Tequesta Group and Regiments Asia
accounts were almost immediately dissipated in a huge flurry of
transactions to over 190 identifiable recipients and companies.
17. Our analysis shows that the majority of the funds were dissipated into
two different money laundering streams. In the first, the funds were
transferred to Hong Kong front companies that had been formed by
company formation agents in Hong Kong. In the second, funds were
paid to a range of textile, garment, furniture and other manufacturers in
mainland China. Customs records show that some of these companies
had reported exports to South Africa.
08 – SUBMISSION: GUPTA ENTERPRISE & THE CAPTURE OF TRANSNET
18. The way in which Tequesta and Regiments Asia operated their Hong
Kong accounts should have raised serious red flags with HSBC, who
provided bank services to the companies. HSBC should have enquired
why two newly formed companies, with a sole politically exposed
director based in South Africa, and who had been publicly linked to
the Gupta enterprise, was receiving over a hundred million dollars from
two state-owned Chinese rail companies over a period of just under
two years. In addition, the way in which the payments were received
and dissipated almost immediately, many of them to Hong Kong front
companies with no known infrastructure or business history was clearly
indicative of money laundering.
THE THIRD LAUNDROMAT: HABIB BANK
19. Documents published by amaBhungane show that in 2016, the Gupta
enterprise ceased using its Hong Kong money laundering network.
From late 2016 onwards, Tequesta and Regiments Asia received funds
from CRRC through accounts held with Habib Bank in the UAE.
PAYMENTS MADE BY LIEBHERR CRANES
20. Documents emanating from the #Guptaleaks show that the Irish
subsidiary of the Swiss company Liebherr Cranes paid millions of dollars
directly to the Gupta enterprise. The payments related to contracts
Liehberr was awarded by Transnet in February 2014 for the supply of
cranes 22 cranes to Transnet.
21. Our analysis of the #Guptaleaks reveals that Liebherr Cranes paid $3 232
430.88 in five tranches directly into the account of Accurate Investments
based in Dubai between the 22nd of July 2013 and the 1st of December
2014, after which the accounts revealed by the #Guptaleaks go dark.
Accurate Investments was controlled by the Gupta enterprise through
the Dubai-based director, Sanjay Grover.
22. Using the internal accounting records revealed by the #Guptaleaks,
our analysis can now reveal how these funds were subject to further
internal laundering through the Gupta enterprise, before being paid out
to various beneficiaries.
23. In tranche 1, Liebherr paid $905 000.88 to Accurate Investments on the
22nd of July 2013. This was ultimately paid out to:
a. Sahara Computers, who received $499 500;
b. Star Engineering, who received $93 378.61. Star Engineering were
being paid for dairy processing equipment that was being purchased
by Estina for use in the Vrede Diary Project;
c. Wizcraft, who received AED475 620. Wizcraft was hired by the
Gupta family to provide entertainment services for the infamous Sun
City wedding of Aakash Jahajgarhia and Vega Gupta;
d. Vikas Chaturvedi, who was paid AED616 500. Vikas Chaturvedi was
an employee of the Gupta enterprise based in India and responsible
for day-to-day logistics for the enterprise.
E xecutive Summary – 09
24. In tranche 2, Liebherr paid $212 006.01 to Accurate Investments on the
17th of February 2014. This was ultimately paid out to:
a. Linkway Trading, a Gupta enterprise company based in South Africa,
which was paid $599 327, made up of the $212 006 from Liebherr

10 – SUBMISSION: GUPTA ENTERPRISE & THE CAPTURE OF TRANSNET
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
30. Transnet was aggressively captured by the Gupta enterprise, which used
its political connectivity to ensure that tens of billions of Rands worth
of capital projects were awarded to CSR, CNR, CRRC, ZPMCC and
Liebherr Cranes.
31. The Gupta enterprise, as a result of this capture, was due to be paid R7
763bn and a further $18.2m by CSR, CNR, CRRC and ZMPC.
32. The Gupta enterprise was also paid a further $3 232 430.88 by Liebherr
Cranes between 2013 and 2014 in relation to Transnet crane contracts.
These amounts were laundered out of Gupta enterprise accounts to be
used for expenses such as entertainment for the infamous Sun City
wedding, and to pay for dilapidated dairy equipment to be used on the
Vrede Dairy Project.
33. The Gupta enterprise made use of three extensive money laundering
networks to receive and pay out the funds from CSR, CNR, CRRC
and ZMPC. The first money laundering network was run with the
help of the Worlds Window group based in India. The second money
laundering network was based in Hong Kong, and was implemented
through payments to dozens of front companies based in Hong Kong
and many more garment, textile and furniture manufacturers based in
mainline China. The third money laundering network was based in the
UAE, in which Gupta enterprise companies controlled bank accounts
at Habib Bank.
34. The laundering of funds by the Gupta enterprise from Transnet contracts
was enabled by some of the world’s biggest banks, including the Bank of
Baroda and HSBC.
35. The scale of the theft from Transnet is staggering, and must rank as one
of the largest corruption scandals to have ever been inflicted on the
South African tax payers. </p><p><br /></p><p>CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The Presidential SOE Council, which I appointed in 2020, has recommended that government adopt a centralised shareholder model for its key commercial state-owned companies. This would separate the State’s ownership functions from its policy-making and regulatory functions, minimise the scope for political interference, introduce greater professionalism and manage state assets in a way that protects shareholder value.</p><p style="border: 0px;

padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The report concludes that government’s initial handling of the July 2021 events was inept, police operational planning was poor, there was poor coordination between the state security and intelligence services, and police are not always embedded in the communities they serve.</p><p style="border: 0px;

font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.6; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Government must work for the people.</p><p style="border: 0px;

padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">That is why our foremost priority is to build a capable, ethical and developmental state.</p><p style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.6; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">We will soon be finalising a framework for the professionalisation of the public service.</p><p style="border: 0px;

padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">This will include tighter measures for recruitment of public servants, continuous professional development through the National School of Government and partnerships between state bodies, professional associations and universities.</p><p style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.6; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px;

padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">In particular, the DDM facilitates integrated planning and budgeting across spheres of government and improves integration of national projects at a district level.</p><p style="border: 0px;

padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Since its formation, SARS has collected some R16 trillion for the country’s social and economic development. This revenue has enabled government to improve the lives of millions through the provision of healthcare, education, social grants and other basic services.</p><p style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box;

box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.6; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px;

font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.6; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">We must work together to ensure that platforms like schools governing bodies and community policing forums are more active and inclusive.</p><p style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.6; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">A vibrant civil society is crucial for a capable state and for development.</p><p style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;

by Mark Bechard on 25 November 2021
Posted in Uncategorized
The Financial Services Tribunal has sharply criticised the FAIS Ombud for not holding an oral hearing during which material disputes of fact could be aired and considered, before making a finding. The tribunal set aside the ombud’s determination against an FSP who advised his client to invest in Sharemax and ordered her to reconsider the complaint.
This is not the first time the tribunal has rebuked the ombud for not exercising the discretion accorded to her by section 27(3) of the FAIS Act and adopting the appropriate procedure, as we have previously reported (for example, see here).
The application to the tribunal was a sequel to the determination issued in October last year.
The FAIS Ombud found that Ermelo-based Gawie en Adri du Toit Makelaars and Gawie du Toit were liable for the financial loss incurred by a client who invested in the Zambezi and The Villa property syndication schemes. Advocate Nonku Tshombe ordered them to pay the client R516 000 and R670 000 – the amounts invested in each scheme respectively.
The applicants contended before the tribunal that:
The ombud’s record of decision was defective, and, as a result, the tribunal would not be able to reconsider the matter appropriately. Two “extensive” responses from the applicants did not form part of the ombud’s records. The responses were material because the determination considered them.
There were material disputes of fact. The ombud “ignored” documentation submitted by the applicants that showed that the risk associated with the investment had been “fully disclosed” to the client. He had thus been in a position to make “an informed decision” as to whether he wanted to invest in Sharemax.
Conflicting versions
The tribunal found that, based on the evidence placed before it, the FSP’s and the client’s versions were in conflict.
“By virtue of the ombud’s statutory powers in terms of the FAIS Act, the ombud was required to address the said disputes in the appropriate manner.”
The tribunal referred extensively to the Supreme Court of Appeal’s observations in the recent judgment in Ombud for Financial Services Providers v CS Brokers CC and Others. This case turned on whether the ombud properly exercised her discretion in dealing with the matter in terms of section 27(3) of the FAIS Act.
The tribunal said the SCA took “a dim view” of the ombud’s response that she did not hold a hearing with oral evidence, but applied a predetermined policy, without reference to the specific issues.
‘Heed our concerns’
The tribunal appealed to the ombud to “heed” its concerns.
It said procedural criticisms have been made “time and again” against the ombud similar to those that were raised in this matter. These were that the ombud:
Did not follow the proper process in investigating and determining the matter;
Did not act fairly and impartially; and
Accepted the complainant’s version despite evidence to the contrary and where there were material disputes of fact.
“The fact that such matters come before the tribunal and for the tribunal to make a finding that the [ombud] failed to deal with the matter appropriately is concerning. Such an approach is contrary to the very purpose for which the [ombud’s] office was established, which includes the expeditious and effective resolution of matters.”
In addition, the tribunal had found it difficult to prepare properly for the hearing, because the record was not only “replete with irrelevant documents” but incomplete. “The said responses were material and should have been before this tribunal.”
The tribunal listed several reasons – including the ombud’s observations in her determination – that should have alerted her to material disputes of fact.
Based on the “albeit incomplete” record, “material disputes of fact seem to exist that should be properly ventilated”. As a result, the ombud should have appropriately exercised her discretion in terms of section 27(3) of the FAIS Act.
The tribunal referred the matter back to the ombud “on the understanding that the proper and appropriate processes would be followed by its office”.

Highveld Syndication BRP and Nova chair sued for R110m
Hans Klopper and Connie Myburgh, along with others, receive summons related to alleged misconduct in delaying the liquidation of a company.

The liquidators of Harrison & White Investments (H&W) have sued the company’s directors, its business rescue practitioner (BRP) and its former legal advisors for R110 million for delaying the “inevitable” liquidation of the company by more than three-and-a-half years.
The summons states that this delay allowed the former directors to loot the company by selling off virtually all the assets, leaving the creditors nearly empty-handed when the company was eventually liquidated in 2017.
The BRP is a well-known restructuring specialist and head of BDO’s Business Restructuring Unit, Hans Klopper.

The former H&W legal advisors are corporate lawyer and current Nova Property Group chair Connie Myburgh, and Diaan Ellis, a director of Faber Goërtz Ellis Austen.

Klopper and Myburgh were involved with the rescue efforts of the failed Highveld Syndication (HS) companies. They are also still involved with the rescue efforts of the failed Sharemax property syndication schemes. More than 30 000 people collectively invested nearly R10 billion in these schemes.
The former directors of H&W are Gavin Zietsman and Michael Ralston. Zietsman is probably better known for being convicted of insider trading and fined R1 million in 2011.
Read the full summons here.
Responses
Klopper, Myburgh and Ellis responded to Moneyweb’s questions and confirmed they would defend the summons and claim. They did not comment on the merits of the allegations made in the summons.
However, Myburgh and Ellis stated that some of the allegations are defamatory and warned Moneyweb that republishing these allegations would also be defamatory. The full responses appear at the bottom of this article.
Zietsman and Ralston could not be reached for comment.

The dark underbelly of the business rescue industry
‘Guilt without trial’ – Klopper
History and damning Section 417 report
H&W was a Benoni-based company that offered crane hire services to the construction industry.
It ran into financial difficulty in 2011 and defaulted on loan repayments to FirstRand. It owed the bank nearly R150 million at the time, and the parties entered into a restructuring agreement to repay the outstanding debt. However, H&W failed to repay the amounts under the agreement, and FirstRand called up the loan in July 2013. The directors put the company into business rescue a few days later, and Klopper was appointed as the BRP.
A business rescue process intends to allow a financially-distressed company some breathing room from creditors’ legal challenges to recover their debts and afford the BRP time to formulate and publish a rescue plan to return the company to financial viability.
Business rescue is intended to be a short-term process – and if the BRP decides the company cannot be saved, it must be put into liquidation immediately.
The summons and a Section 417 report (see below) allege that the company was insolvent at the time and should have been liquidated immediately. However, the business rescue process was prolonged and the company was only finally liquidated in February 2017 – more than three-and-a-half years later.
This is despite FirstRand applying for the company’s provisional liquidation in February 2015, which the parties opposed.
Claim of R110 million
Cloete Murray and Kgashane Monyela, the joint liquidators of H&W, issued the summons in December last year.
The summons claims the company owned assets valued at R116 million when it entered business rescue in July 2013, but only R6.1 million when the final liquidation order was granted in February 2017.
This delay, they claim, resulted in over R110 million in losses, which the liquidators are now claiming from the individuals.
Critical of Klopper, Myburgh and Ellis
The summons alleges that the delay paved the way for the selloff of the assets to the creditors’ detriment.
It is especially critical of Klopper’s conduct as BRP and says he failed to investigate H&W’s affairs properly and that not putting the company in liquidation was “grossly negligent”. Klopper, according to the summons, also failed to ensure that the business rescue process was not abused by Ralston, Zietsman, Myburgh and Ellis.
The summons is equally critical of Myburgh and Ellis and states that they were in breach of their fiduciary duties to H&W and its shareholders and creditors.
“Had Myburgh and Ellis not breached their obligations and acted properly, H&W would have been liquidated in June 2013.”
“The conduct of placing H&W in business rescue, keeping it in business rescue, opposing the winding-up and leaving the affairs to Ralston and [Kevin] Kemp [a manager at H&W at the time] was intended to benefit Ralston, Kemp, Myburgh, Klopper and Ellis and the shareholders and some creditors of H&W. The conduct aforesaid was reckless and was intended to, or resulted in, prejudice to and was in fraud of the general body of creditors of H&W and in particular to FirstRand.”
Section 417 report
The summons follows a Section 417 report, penned by respected retired judge Eberhard Bertelsmann as the commissioner, in 2019. He was appointed in November 2017 by the Master of the Court to investigate whether H&W’s assets were indeed stripped or looted before the liquidation.
Bertelsmann also concluded that the business rescue process was fraudulently abused to delay an inevitable liquidation, which allowed for the selloff of the company’s assets.
Bertelsmann also recommended that the master refer the conduct of Zietsman, Ralston and Myburgh to the National Director of Public Prosecutions for criminal investigation.

Sharemax and Picvest
Klopper and Myburgh are closely involved with the rescue schemes of two of South Africa’s biggest failed investment schemes: Sharemax and Picvest.
Klopper was the BRP of the failed HS companies, which were placed in business rescue in September 2011. In terms of the original business rescue plan and a subsequent Section 155 Scheme of Arrangement, all properties syndicated as part of the HS schemes should have been transferred to a single company, Orthotouch, but this never happened.
Virtually all of these properties were subsequently sold to third parties during the eight years it remained in business rescue, including the listed entity Accelerate.
The business rescue process ended when Orthotouch itself was placed into business rescue in November 2019.
Klopper and Myburgh were directors of Orthotouch.

Klopper and Myburgh are also involved with Nova, the rescue vehicle of the failed Sharemax investment scheme. They are the two receivers and are responsible for implementing the scheme of arrangement to repay investors.
Myburgh is also Nova’s executive chairman.
However, Nova has been in financial distress for a few years and has sold several underlying property assets to finance its operating expenses. The company is also facing corporate governance challenges. It failed to publish its annual financial statements (AFSs) for three consecutive years within six months after the year-end, as the Companies Act prescribes. The 2020 AFS, which was due before the end of August 2020, has still not been published.
Furthermore, Nova’s auditors qualified Nova’s 2018 and 2019 AFSs and expressed concerns regarding its ability to continue as a going concern.

Dear Mr van Niekerk
1 I am defending the action that you speak of, insofar as it pertains to me and am legally represented in that regard.
2 You will thus readily appreciate that it would not be appropriate to enter into a debate with you regarding the merits of the matter whilst the matter is the subject of litigation and I will not do so at this juncture, particularly in circumstances where my professional indemnity insurance policy precludes me from commenting on the matter.

CIPC has no power over Sharemax rescue
By Roy Cokayne Time of article published Sep 25, 2014
SHARE THIS ARTICLE:
Roy Cokayne
THE COURTS are the correct forum to review the conduct of the business rescue practitioner appointed to run Sharemax Investments, according to the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC).
Astrid Ludin, the CIPC commissioner, said this week that the provisions of the law did not impose an obligation on the commission to monitor business rescue practitioners.
Ludin’s comments follow claims by the SA Revenue Service (Sars) that Sharemax’s business rescue practitioner, Liebenberg van der Merwe, had been appointed on December 7, 2011, but to date had not published a business rescue plan for the company.
The Companies Act requires a business rescue plan to be published within 25 business days after the date on which the business rescue practitioner was appointed. Any extension had to be approved in court or the holders of a majority of the creditors’ voting interest.
Sars has applied for the setting aside and termination of Sharemax’s business rescue and its liquidation because of the company’s alleged inability to pay R15.7 million in outstanding taxes.
Ludin said business rescue practitioners were officers of the court and the CIPC currently licensed practitioners for each rescue process. The CIPC was also responsible for receiving the initial business rescue notice, status updates and the termination notices.
“The purpose is to provide creditors and members of the public [with] information about the status of the enterprise. The status report provides us with an indication of whether the process is ongoing,” she said.
Ludin stressed that progress had to be reported to the shareholders and creditors by the practitioner and the CIPC was not in a position to monitor compliance because it did not have the power to do so.
“The CIPC only has powers to revoke conditional licences issued to business rescue practitioners. We did not issue a conditional licence in this case and, therefore, cannot revoke the licence,” she said.
“We have no other powers related to business rescue. The court is the correct forum to review matters of compliance.
Attempts to obtain comment from Van der Merwe about Sharemax were unsuccessful.
However, Elle-Sarah Rossato, a Sars official, said that in an affidavit in support of Sars’s application, Van der Merwe claimed in October last year that a business rescue plan for Sharemax could not be finalised until quantification of Sars’s claim was finalised and finality was achieved on the complaints adjudicated by the ombud for financial services providers.
This referred to the determination by the ombud between Gerbrecht Siegrist and Sharemax group companies, including Sharemax Investments, in terms of which all of these companies were held jointly and severally liable for the payment of R580 000 to Siegrist.
Rossato said using the quantification of Sars’s claim to delay matters was “disingenuous and incorrect” because the correctness of the tax debt was confirmed at a meeting in September last year.
Van der Merwe’s assertion that the business rescue plan could not be finalised until finality was achieved on the Siegrist determination was “equally disingenuous”, because the decision was handed down on January 29 last year.
Rossato said it appeared the reason for placing Sharemax Investments into business rescue was to obtain a moratorium against payments of debts, as afforded by the Companies Act.
“The inescapable inference is that creditors of the first respondent [Sharemax] were misled with a promise that R40 million would be coming their way, while the controllers of the first respondent [Sharemax] had already decided to abuse the Companies Act’s business rescue provisions.”
About 33 000 investors invested about R4.5 billion in Sharemax’s various schemes.
Sharemax was placed under statutory management by the registrar of banks in 2010 when it defaulted on monthly payments to investors

Sharemax chronicles continue: ‘Old people die, the fat cats laugh’
Phillip De Wet
2 Dec 2016
Empty promises: Glynnis Morris has not seen any return from her investment.
Empty promises: Glynnis Morris has not seen any return from her investment.
Every few months 70-year-old Glynnis Morris receives a letter from Frontier Asset Management. In broad strokes the letter tells her how well everything is going with Frontier’s sibling company, Nova Property, into which her entire R300 000 pension was forcibly invested. She no longer reads the letters. She goes straight back to figuring out how to get by on her R1 500-a-month government old-age grant. “It’s always the same letter, only the dates change,” she says.
She has not seen a single cent from her investment for many years now, Morris says, no hint of the R3 125 monthly income — plus maybe some capital growth if the property market did well — she thought she was buying when she invested in the ill-fated Sharemax property syndication scheme in 2009.
Instead she has seen many promises from the directors of Nova, which stepped in as the rescuers when Sharemax collapsed and took over Sharemax’s assets. In return for delivering that service to Morris and others, the directors of Nova each paid themselves an average of R4.9‑million in the past financial year.
Morris has it better than most. She lives in a granny flat attached to the home of one of her daughters, and her two other daughters help her out with food “when I run out, which is often”. When the Mail & Guardian this week traced two other former Sharemax and now Nova investors, we found that one had died in March and the other had recently slipped into a coma.
“This is what happens all the time,” said a relative of the latter. “These old people had their money taken. Now they don’t eat properly, then they get ill and they die, while the fat cats are laughing all the way.”
The Nova directors — Dominique Haese, Rudi Badenhorst, Dirk Koekemoer and Connie Myburgh — deny they are anything other than businesspeople who work hard to manage the assets in which Sharemax participants had invested. But the difference between their rewards and those of the original investors is stark.
This week, specialist financial website Moneyweb calculated that the four Nova directors’ combined R15.1‑million cash salaries in the past financial year were more than double the average earned by executives at most property management companies. Those cash salaries, Moneyweb said, represented 17% of Nova’s total cash receipts for the financial year.
The four directors have near total control over how the company spends its money.
After a legal battle stretching over several years to obtain the technically public register of Nova shareholders, Moneyweb last week revealed that the directors own 87.1% of the company, and have even greater voting rights thanks to a structure that reduces debenture holders to recipients of money and information as and when the four directors see fit.
The directors value their shareholding, which in effect they received for free, at more than R1‑billion.
Nova chief executive Haese played a pivotal role at Sharemax before it collapsed, and fellow director Koekemoer was also a director of Sharemax for several years.
It is clear that directors pay themselves first from the company’s proceeds before any payments to the debenture holders they are responsible for, Moneyweb said. As a result, averaged over the past two financial years, Nova directors paid themselves out R3.6‑million each a year. The 31 000 debenture holders whose money they manage were paid an average of just less than R400 each.
Average payments to debenture holders are a poor metric, because often the Nova directors do not see fit to provide. In the last communication Morris received, Nova was self-congratulatory about a 2013 decision “to reduce and/or cease projected monthly return payments” to debenture holders in favour of using the cash to refurbish shopping centres.
Morris did not get any real say in the decision to pay her no interest, just as she was never really consulted when Sharemax morphed into Nova, or even on how her pension would be invested in the first place. In fact, she did not understand the mechanism of the investment. But then, nor did her investment adviser.
Morris thought she was putting her money into The Villa, a large shopping centre to be built east of Pretoria. That sort of bricks-and-mortar investment suited her risk appetite — extremely low — as it did many pensioners, which seems to be the main reason Sharemax drew so many of their ilk.
What her savings were actually buying, later perusal of a prospectus would reveal, was “an unsecured subordinated interest rate acknowledgment of debt linked to a share”. In the rush to get her money invested, that went over Morris’s head. Her investment adviser had been “hounding” her about when she would receive her pension lump sum, she recalls.
The very morning it landed in her bank account he accompanied her to the bank, explained to the teller what she wanted, took the resulting cheque from the teller and had Morris sign some forms. Interrogation of the mechanism of the investment was limited.
“I said to him: ‘Are you absolutely positive that I’m not being conned here?’ and he said: ‘No,’” she recounts of the 20-minute transaction.
Investment advisers were notoriously keen on Sharemax, which paid very large upfront commissions: like the current Nova directors, advisers got paid regardless of whether the risk their clients were taking paid off.
And some, like Morris’s adviser, had no understanding of that risk, the office of the ombud for financial services providers, known as the FAIS ombud, has consistently ruled.
“It is apparent from [Morris’s advisor’s] version that he had no idea just what the investment was about and, as such, could not appreciate that the complainant was lending money to an entity, which entity would in turn lend the funds to a developer, leaving investors with no form of security whatsoever,” ombud Noluntu Bam ruled in Morris’s case this August.
There was also the small detail that the shopping centre Morris was supposedly investing in had not yet been built and could therefore not generate rental income to pay her 12.5% interest — the promised payments could only come from the investments of other people. Although Sharemax has never been found by a court to have been one, that is the common structure of all Ponzi schemes.
The FAIS ombud ordered Morris’s adviser to repay her investment in full, under rules that make advisers liable for losses incurred because of their negligence. For a short while it looked as if she would get back her savings. Then she was notified that her adviser had appealed against the ruling.
That leaves only the chance that the four well-paid directors of Nova will see fit to direct some money her way. But she is not overly optimistic, and she is not alone.
“The investors who complain to this office have received no credible information as to the steps that are being taken to repay their investment,” Bam wrote in May about another Sharemax-related complaint.
“Most investors see incomplete and ghost buildings all around, with no suggestion that they will ever recover their money.”
But in a June letter the Nova board told Morris that the various hurdles to cashing in on her partially built shopping centre were “constantly being addressed by the board” — just as it has been telling her since at least 2014.
Nova did not answer detailed questions. Earlier this week, chief executive Haese told Moneyweb she would no longer provide information because it “will be twisted and used out of context for the purpose of further negative reporting”.

Findings against Nova chair referred to NPA
An investigation into Connie Myburgh and others may be in the offing following the Master of the Court’s referral of a Section 417 report to the prosecuting authority.
By Ryk van Niekerk 4 Mar 2021 00:01
The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) may investigate Connie Myburgh, chair of the Nova Property Group, for his apparent role in delaying the liquidation and the subsequent looting of the assets of a company, Harrison & White (H&W).
Such an investigation may follow after the Master of the South Gauteng High Court referred a Section 417 report to the NPA for investigation in February.
The report found that the conduct of Myburgh and H&W directors Gavin Zietsman and Michael Ralston resulted in creditors suffering significant losses, and recommended its referral to the NPA.
The referral is of significant public interest as Myburgh is the current chair of Nova, the rescue vehicle of the failed Sharemax investment scheme, and a former director of Orthotouch, the rescue scheme of the failed Highveld Syndication schemes.
Both companies are currently in financial difficulty, and both sold off many assets in recent years.
More than 30 000 people invested nearly R10 billion in these schemes, and it seems unlikely they will be refunded their original investments, if anything.

‘Guilt without trial’ – Klopper
Referral of the report
The case stems from 2017, when the Master of the South Gauteng High Court ordered a Section 417 investigation into several individuals’ conduct during the three-and-a-half years from when the directors put the company into business rescue to its eventual liquidation.
Retired justice Eberhard Bertelsmann was the commissioner of the inquiry, and he found the business rescue process was abused and allowed for the widescale illegal sell-off of assets. Creditors, which include Rand Merchant Bank, were left with virtually no dividend.
Bertelsmann submitted the report to the master in 2019 and recommended its referral to the NPA.
The Department of Justice and Constitutional Development confirmed to Moneyweb that the Master of the South Gauteng High Court referred the report to Advocate Andrew Chauke, the Director of Public Prosecutions in Gauteng.
Interestingly, it seems the master initially decided not to refer the report.
In response to Moneyweb questions, a spokesperson said the master did not refer it as the report did not make such a recommendation, citing an incorrect paragraph in the report.
However, Moneyweb drew the official’s attention to the correct paragraphs in the report, which recommend the referral to the NPA, after which the master seemingly changed the decision.
Myburgh’s response
In response to Moneyweb’s questions, Myburgh said he was unaware of the referral and denied any wrongdoing. “You cannot, with respect, expect me to respond to this assertion, which you have elevated to a ‘fact’, without this ‘fact’ being confirmed. I certainly am not aware of any such ‘decision’.
“I have not committed any wrongs which could substantiate investigations or proceedings against me and whilst I disagree with and reject the views of the Commissioner regarding me in the confidential Section 417 Report, as being baseless, the media is not the forum to debate any issues regarding the Report and the Report will be dealt with in the fullness of time in the appropriate forum, should the need therefor arise.”
Myburgh also stated that he would not resign as chair of Nova as a consequence of the referral. “The board of the Nova Group has dealt with the Report and has already confirmed that my resignation from the board is not necessary.” (Read Myburgh’s full statement at the end of this article.)
Neither Zietsman nor Ralston responded to Moneyweb questions.
Civil action
The master’s referral of the report to the NPA follows earlier civil proceedings the H&W liquidators instituted against the directors and former management of the company for the losses the company and creditors allegedly suffered.
The liquidators claim R110 million from the directors, Myburgh, H&W business rescue practitioner Hans Klopper and Diaan Ellis of Pretoria-based law firm Faber Goërtz Ellis Austen. They all indicated that the action would be opposed.
In the summons, the liquidators claim H&W owned assets valued at R116 million when it entered business rescue in July 2013, but only R6.1 million remained at liquidation in February 2017. According to the summons, H&W’s total debt at liquidation was R66 million.
This delay, they claim, resulted in over R110 million in losses, which the liquidators are now claiming from the individuals.
Read: Highveld Syndication BRP and Nova chair sued for R110m
Findings and recommendations of the Section 417 report
Bertelsmann found in the 79-page Section 417 report that H&W was “the victim of directors and management bent upon personal enrichment in disregard of the rights of creditors”.
Regarding Myburgh, Bertelsmann states that he breached his fiduciary duties as H&W’s legal advisor and found himself in a triple conflict of interest.
The report states that Myburgh should have been aware of the company’s dire financial position and recommended the company’s immediate liquidation rather than put it into business rescue.
“As a legal advisor he was obliged to engage the company directors and management as soon as the red lights of inability to meet financial commitments as and when they occurred began to flicker. He did nothing of the sort.
“He continued collecting retainers while the sham of business rescue proceedings played itself out over a period of about three years,” the report reads.
Bertelsmann also found that Myburgh colluded with the directors and management.
“He colluded with the company directors and management in obstructing the flow of justice by delaying the finalisation of the liquidation application through the stratagem of the intervention of the trusts, who were to his knowledge by no stretch of the imagination bona fide creditors.
“In his role as legal advisor, he indubitably participated in the management of every one of the companies in the group, including the insolvent company. The actions stipulated above were clearly reckless, if not worse.”
The Section 417 report made damning findings and recommendations related to Zietsman and Ralston, finding their conduct to be reckless, fraudulent and dishonest.
Legal Practice Council
Bertelsmann also recommended that Myburgh and Klopper be referred to the Legal Practice Council (LPC) for investigation and possible disciplinary action.
After Moneyweb alerted the LPC in 2019 of the existence of the Section 417 report, the LPC approached the master to release the report.
Jaco Fourie, senior legal officer at the LPC’s disciplinary department, said the master only referred the report to the LPC in February this year. “We will now first have to give the respondents an opportunity to make their submissions in respect of the report by Justice Bertelsmann, before we proceed to refer the matter back to the investigating committee. In terms of Rule 39.3.1 we are required to grant a respondent 30 days to answer.”
Full response from Connie Myburgh, chair of the Nova Property Group and former legal advisor of H&W:
Mr van Niekerk.
You suggest, without revealing your source, that the Master of the High Court has decided to refer the confidential Section 417 Report to the NDPP [National Director of Public Prosecutions]. You cannot, with respect, expect me to respond to this assertion, which you have elevated to a “fact”, without this “fact” being confirmed. I certainly am not aware of any such “decision”.
I have not committed any wrongs which could substantiate investigations or proceedings against me and whilst I disagree with and reject the views of the Commissioner regarding me in the confidential Section 417 Report, as being baseless, the media is not the forum to debate any issues regarding the Report and the Report will be dealt with in the fullness of time in the appropriate forum, should the need therefor arise.
The board of the Nova Group has dealt with the Report and has already confirmed that my resignation from the board is not necessary.
Should you decide to print anything regarding this matter, you are requested to quote my response verbatim.

News Report 2011
At long last the so-called new independent directors of Sharemax-promoted property syndications admitted last week that investors will – or already have – lost a large portion of their capital. That’s bad news for those financial advisers who have so far closed ranks in secret forums and tried to tell one another the Section 311 schemes were going to make capital losses disappear. Without capital losses they are, of course, free of any responsibility, as we reported a fortnight ago.In a letter dated 16 May to investors, the new directors admit a R100 000 investment – in, say, Zambezi Mall – that’s now going to be repaid in 120 monthly payments (that is, 10 years), plus the balance after 10 years in a single payment, doesn’t have the same current value as R100 000 in a bank. In what amounts to a huge quantum leap, Dawie Roodt and former Judge Willie Hartzenberg admit the current value of the capital repayments to investors in terms of the A311 schemes aren’t worth as much as cash in the bank.The current value of money after all means R100 000 now is worth more than R100 000 in 10 years’ time. The promise of a R100 000 IOU to be paid in 10 years’ time doesn’t amount to the same as a R100 000 investment or debt today.That admission by the board has serious implications for all role players in the Sharemax syndications.Financial advisers can now again be held accountable for the capital losses suffered, or to be suffered, by investors. Someone is going to sit down and try to work out how much that is. And even though it will only be an estimate – because it’s impossible to place a value on the concoctions offered to investors – it will be worth less – far less – than the original investment. The board admits as much in its latest letter and that admission is now an important legal document for any investor who plans to put his case to the ombudsman.Roodt and Hartzenberg admit the debentures, or whatever they plan to call them, are worth less – a lot less (my emphasis) – than 100c in the rand. I still say they’ll be worth less than 20c in the rand and, especially in the case of The Villa, probably less than 5c in the rand.Roodt would be just as well explaining that clearly to the financial advisers when he again addresses one of their closed meetings. And he could do the same at the proposed A311 meetings of investors coming up soon. Both Roodt and Hartzenberg should also give the assurance that the latter won’t be closed meetings but that the press may also attend. 2011 News Report

Madmax 9 months ago
Johannesburg – The three so-called independent directors – Dawie Roodt, Judge Willie Hartzenberg and Rudi Badenhorst – appointed on Tuesday to the boards of the 33 syndications of troubled property syndicate Sharemax were installed by the outgoing boards and not by the statutory managers appointed by the Reserve Bank.
These boards were made up exclusively of the previous directors of Sharemax itself. They can therefore hardly be called independent.
The press release by Baird’s – which is acting on behalf of Sharemax – reads: “The Sharemax statutory managers appointed by the South African Reserve Bank announced the appointment of three independent non-executive directors for all the individual property investment companies by the respective boards.”
This is cleverly worded but misleading. The respective boards, that is the old Sharemax-controlled boards of Willie Botha and Andre Brand, appointed the above-mentioned independent directors.
The statutory managers – the real powers currently in control of the billions invested in the schemes – merely “announced” the appointments.
The statutory managers will probably report to the Reserve Bank within a couple of days that all the syndications are technically and legally insolvent.
The directors of an insolvent entity, whether independent or not, have little more power than to order new toilet paper for the respective buildings.
Investors in Sharemax should not get carried away by the appointment of these so-called independent directors to the boards of the syndications.
They don’t have fresh money, and stacks of fresh money is what is needed to save Zambezi Mall, the Villa as well as various other run-down and poorly-managed older buildings.

The Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC) is concerned the Nova Property Group is not in a financial position to repay former Sharemax investors, and also questions whether the company has the mandate to repay investors after the deadline of January 20, 2022, as stipulated in the original Schemes of Arrangement (SoA) and the Nova Debenture Trust Deed.
The CIPC also believes Nova did not disclose that it has the discretion to postpone repayments post this deadline properly to debenture holders – despite Nova’s assertion to the contrary.

Auditor flags Nova’s ability to continue as a going concern for 3rd year in a row
Nova has sold more than half of its investment properties
This is evident from the two compliance notices the commission issued to Nova in February and October this year.
Moneyweb obtained copies of the two notices, as well as Nova’s response to the first notice and a CIPC inspector’s report, after submitting a request in terms of the Promotion of Access to Information Act to the CIPC.
The documentation reveals that the CIPC rejected the bulk of Nova’s response to the first compliance notice, in which the company claimed it was solvent and had the authority to postpone the repayment of debentures.
The commission has now given Nova a final opportunity to prove it is solvent and has the cash to repay its liabilities when they become due. According to Moneyweb’s calculations, Nova needs to submit a response on or before December 20, 2021.
If Nova fails to convince the CIPC, the commission may shut the company’s operations down. This will result in the Sharemax rescue vehicle being placed under administration, into business rescue or even into liquidation.

Compliance notices
The CIPC issued the first compliance notice to Nova on February 4, 2021. It was a CoR 19.1 compliance notice issued in terms of Section 22 of the Companies Act, which prohibits a company from trading recklessly, negligently, fraudulently, or under insolvent circumstances.
In the notice, the CIPC demands that Nova submit its annual financial statements (AFS) for its 2020 financial year. The commission needs the AFS to gauge whether the company’s financial position had improved from the previous year when the external auditors qualified the financial statements and expressed concern as to whether Nova could continue to operate as a going concern.
The CIPC also disputed a note in the 2019 AFS that stated Nova has the option to delay the repayment of debentures beyond the 10-year deadline specified in the SoA. “The commission is of a different view in light of the contents of the debenture trust deed, in that it believes the debentures must be settled by no later than 20 January 2022,” the notice reads.
The notice demanded that Nova submit a resolution in which it commits to repay debentures before the deadline and to prove it has the financial resources to do so.
The commission also requested that Nova provide proof that debenture holders agree with the Nova board’s position that it has the discretion to repay debentures after the deadline.
Nova’s formal response
Nova formally submitted its response on March 3. In the response, Dominique Haese, Nova’s CEO, denied Nova was in contravention of Section 22 of the Companies Act and that it was operating “recklessly, with gross negligence, with the intent to defraud a person, or to have a fraudulent purpose, or that it is unable to pay its debt as they become due in the ordinary course of business”.

Haese said the CIPC did not refer to any specific conduct to justify such an assertion.
She also stated repeatedly that Nova was factually and commercially solvent, that the company’s assets exceed its liabilities and that the company is able to repay its debts when they become due and payable.
Regarding the qualified audit opinion of the 2019 AFS, Haese said: “The content of the 2020 AFS demonstrates that the auditors’ concerns, as expressed in the 2019 AFS, proved to be without merit and that the Nova Group, during the financial year ending 28 February 2020 not only managed to trade in solvent circumstances but generated a profit of R1.9 million (increased to R21.4 million having regard to certain adjustments).”
However, neither the CIPC nor Nova refer to developments disclosed in Nova’s 2019 AFS that may be regarded as reckless behaviour.
The first is the auditor’s warning that Nova used the proceeds of the sale of investment properties to fund operational expenses.
The second is that the company borrowed nearly R40 million from a bridging finance provider at the astronomical interest rate of 1% per week, as it could not secure funding from commercial banks.
Nor did either the CIPC or Nova refer to Nova’s qualified 2018 AFS, in which the auditor also expressed its concern that Nova could not continue to operate as a going concern.
It would be a contravention of Section 22 of the Companies Act to operate insolvently.
Payment of debenture holders
Of particular importance was Haese’s assertion that Nova has the option to postpone the repayment of debentures beyond January 20 next year.
In the CoR 19.1 notice, the CIPC expressed a view that Nova needs to settle the debentures before the deadline and doesn’t have the option to postpone payments.
However, Haese said the debenture trust deed explicitly gives the company the option to postpone payment.
Haese quoted several clauses from the trust deed to validate its position. The most pertinent is paragraph 6.3.1.2, which states that debentures shall be redeemable on “any date on which the company elects with the receivers and the trustee’s written approval to redeem some or all of the debentures”.
Haese said “it is appreciated that the CIPC holds a different view but this is essentially a matter of differing legal opinion”.
She continued: “Even if the company’s view in regard to the due date for repayment of debentures is found to be incorrect, its view is nonetheless held bona vide [sic] and should not be conflated with recklessness, gross negligence or fraud.”
Haese also said Nova does not have to prove that debenture holders share this view, as the CIPC requested. “The terms of the debentures are objectively ascertainable. Those terms prevail whether the individual debenture holders understand that to be the case, or not.”

CIPC rejected Nova’s response
However, the CIPC rejected virtually all of Nova’s explanations and issued the second compliance notice in October. It was a CoR 139.1 notice which was issued in terms of Section 71 of the Companies Act.
Cuma Zwane, an investigator for corporate disclosure and compliance regulation at the CIPC, stated in an inspector’s report that there are discrepancies in Nova’s disclosure of the conditions tied to the debentures.
In April 2021, Nova sent a communique to debenture holders in which it said that although the “board has the discretion to postpone the payment of Debentures, beyond the projected 10-year Scheme of Arrangement period, the Board, in February 2021, made the decision to commence Debenture payment during 2021”.
But the inspector’s report refers to the fact that Nova did not disclose in its 2017 and 2018 AFS that repayments may be postponed, while stating in all of its other AFS between February 2014 and February 2020, that the period it had to repay the debentures could be extended.
According to the report, these discrepancies in the AFS, read in conjunction with the SoA and Debenture Trust Deed, raised a concern.
“There is no express provision in neither the Schemes of Arrangement nor the Debenture Trust Deed that gives the directors the exclusive discretion to postpone the repayment period without the receivers and the trustee’s written approval,” the report states.
Zwane also highlighted that the trustee of the trust resigned in 2019 and Nova never followed the prescribed process to have him replaced. “As such, debenture holders have no representation in the company and are unable to or have limited capacity to exercise their rights as outlined in the debenture trust deed.”
The receivers are Hans Klopper, business rescue practitioner of the Highveld Syndication Companies and head of restructuring at BDO in South Africa, and Connie Myburgh. Myburgh is also chair of Nova and a major shareholder in the company.

The CIPC also rejected Nova’s claims that it is solvent and has the cash to pay liabilities when they become due. This stems mostly from Nova’s failure to publish its 2020 AFS before August 2020. This was in contravention of the Companies Act, which prescribes that it must be published within six months after its year-end. Nova eventually published the 2020 AFS on February 26, 2021, nearly six months late.
Zwane wrote that the absence of the 2020 AFS made it impossible for the commission to ascertain whether Nova is in a solvent financial position and could repay creditors for its financial year to the end of February 2022.
The CIPC demands that Nova submit the following documents in response to its CoR 139.1 notice:
A signed board resolution where Nova commits to repaying debenture holders as it undertook to do in a communique sent to debenture holders in April. In this communique, referred to above, the board indicated it would start to repay debentures in 2021.
Nova’s AFS for its 2021 financial year, which was due to be published before the end of August. The CIPC states it wants to confirm the amount of current liabilities due at the end of February 2022 and whether Nova is solvent.
Confirmation from the trustee of the Nova Debenture Trust that the Nova board “may postpone” the repayment debentures after January 20, 2022, as projected by the SoA. If Nova cannot submit such confirmation from the trustee, then “substantive proof” that the company is solvent and has sufficient liquid assets to ensure the company can meet its current liabilities in its 2022 financial year.
The threat of legal action
It is conceivable that this case could head to court, especially as Nova has already threatened the CIPC with legal action.
Nova’s response to the first compliance notice was accompanied by a covering letter from Nova’s attorney Diaan Ellis of the law firm Faber Goertz Ellis Austen. In this letter Ellis proposed that should the CIPC reject Nova’s response, Nova is afforded an opportunity to approach the High Court for a declaratory order.
Ellis threatened that should the CIPC not agree to such a course of action, Nova would apply for an interdict preventing the commission from validating the compliance notice pending the outcome of a declaratory process.
Zwane confirmed to Moneyweb that the CIPC did not expressly agree to such a course of action, but that Nova did not take such a course of action.

CIPC has no power over Sharemax rescue
By Roy Cokayne Time of article published Sep 25, 2014
SHARE THIS ARTICLE:
Roy Cokayne
THE COURTS are the correct forum to review the conduct of the business rescue practitioner appointed to run Sharemax Investments, according to the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC).
Astrid Ludin, the CIPC commissioner, said this week that the provisions of the law did not impose an obligation on the commission to monitor business rescue practitioners.
Ludin’s comments follow claims by the SA Revenue Service (Sars) that Sharemax’s business rescue practitioner, Liebenberg van der Merwe, had been appointed on December 7, 2011, but to date had not published a business rescue plan for the company.
The Companies Act requires a business rescue plan to be published within 25 business days after the date on which the business rescue practitioner was appointed. Any extension had to be approved in court or the holders of a majority of the creditors’ voting interest.
Sars has applied for the setting aside and termination of Sharemax’s business rescue and its liquidation because of the company’s alleged inability to pay R15.7 million in outstanding taxes.
Ludin said business rescue practitioners were officers of the court and the CIPC currently licensed practitioners for each rescue process. The CIPC was also responsible for receiving the initial business rescue notice, status updates and the termination notices.
“The purpose is to provide creditors and members of the public [with] information about the status of the enterprise. The status report provides us with an indication of whether the process is ongoing,” she said.
Ludin stressed that progress had to be reported to the shareholders and creditors by the practitioner and the CIPC was not in a position to monitor compliance because it did not have the power to do so.
“The CIPC only has powers to revoke conditional licences issued to business rescue practitioners. We did not issue a conditional licence in this case and, therefore, cannot revoke the licence,” she said.
“We have no other powers related to business rescue. The court is the correct forum to review matters of compliance.
Attempts to obtain comment from Van der Merwe about Sharemax were unsuccessful.
However, Elle-Sarah Rossato, a Sars official, said that in an affidavit in support of Sars’s application, Van der Merwe claimed in October last year that a business rescue plan for Sharemax could not be finalised until quantification of Sars’s claim was finalised and finality was achieved on the complaints adjudicated by the ombud for financial services providers.
This referred to the determination by the ombud between Gerbrecht Siegrist and Sharemax group companies, including Sharemax Investments, in terms of which all of these companies were held jointly and severally liable for the payment of R580 000 to Siegrist.
Rossato said using the quantification of Sars’s claim to delay matters was “disingenuous and incorrect” because the correctness of the tax debt was confirmed at a meeting in September last year.
Van der Merwe’s assertion that the business rescue plan could not be finalised until finality was achieved on the Siegrist determination was “equally disingenuous”, because the decision was handed down on January 29 last year.
Rossato said it appeared the reason for placing Sharemax Investments into business rescue was to obtain a moratorium against payments of debts, as afforded by the Companies Act.
“The inescapable inference is that creditors of the first respondent [Sharemax] were misled with a promise that R40 million would be coming their way, while the controllers of the first respondent [Sharemax] had already decided to abuse the Companies Act’s business rescue provisions.”
About 33 000 investors invested about R4.5 billion in Sharemax’s various schemes.
Sharemax was placed under statutory management by the registrar of banks in 2010 when it defaulted on monthly payments to investors

Sharemax chronicles continue: ‘Old people die, the fat cats laugh’
Phillip De Wet
2 Dec 2016
Empty promises: Glynnis Morris has not seen any return from her investment.
Empty promises: Glynnis Morris has not seen any return from her investment.
Every few months 70-year-old Glynnis Morris receives a letter from Frontier Asset Management. In broad strokes the letter tells her how well everything is going with Frontier’s sibling company, Nova Property, into which her entire R300 000 pension was forcibly invested. She no longer reads the letters. She goes straight back to figuring out how to get by on her R1 500-a-month government old-age grant. “It’s always the same letter, only the dates change,” she says.
She has not seen a single cent from her investment for many years now, Morris says, no hint of the R3 125 monthly income — plus maybe some capital growth if the property market did well — she thought she was buying when she invested in the ill-fated Sharemax property syndication scheme in 2009.
Instead she has seen many promises from the directors of Nova, which stepped in as the rescuers when Sharemax collapsed and took over Sharemax’s assets. In return for delivering that service to Morris and others, the directors of Nova each paid themselves an average of R4.9‑million in the past financial year.
Morris has it better than most. She lives in a granny flat attached to the home of one of her daughters, and her two other daughters help her out with food “when I run out, which is often”. When the Mail & Guardian this week traced two other former Sharemax and now Nova investors, we found that one had died in March and the other had recently slipped into a coma.
“This is what happens all the time,” said a relative of the latter. “These old people had their money taken. Now they don’t eat properly, then they get ill and they die, while the fat cats are laughing all the way.”
The Nova directors — Dominique Haese, Rudi Badenhorst, Dirk Koekemoer and Connie Myburgh — deny they are anything other than businesspeople who work hard to manage the assets in which Sharemax participants had invested. But the difference between their rewards and those of the original investors is stark.
This week, specialist financial website Moneyweb calculated that the four Nova directors’ combined R15.1‑million cash salaries in the past financial year were more than double the average earned by executives at most property management companies. Those cash salaries, Moneyweb said, represented 17% of Nova’s total cash receipts for the financial year.
The four directors have near total control over how the company spends its money.
After a legal battle stretching over several years to obtain the technically public register of Nova shareholders, Moneyweb last week revealed that the directors own 87.1% of the company, and have even greater voting rights thanks to a structure that reduces debenture holders to recipients of money and information as and when the four directors see fit.
The directors value their shareholding, which in effect they received for free, at more than R1‑billion.
Nova chief executive Haese played a pivotal role at Sharemax before it collapsed, and fellow director Koekemoer was also a director of Sharemax for several years.
It is clear that directors pay themselves first from the company’s proceeds before any payments to the debenture holders they are responsible for, Moneyweb said. As a result, averaged over the past two financial years, Nova directors paid themselves out R3.6‑million each a year. The 31 000 debenture holders whose money they manage were paid an average of just less than R400 each.
Average payments to debenture holders are a poor metric, because often the Nova directors do not see fit to provide. In the last communication Morris received, Nova was self-congratulatory about a 2013 decision “to reduce and/or cease projected monthly return payments” to debenture holders in favour of using the cash to refurbish shopping centres.
Morris did not get any real say in the decision to pay her no interest, just as she was never really consulted when Sharemax morphed into Nova, or even on how her pension would be invested in the first place. In fact, she did not understand the mechanism of the investment. But then, nor did her investment adviser.
Morris thought she was putting her money into The Villa, a large shopping centre to be built east of Pretoria. That sort of bricks-and-mortar investment suited her risk appetite — extremely low — as it did many pensioners, which seems to be the main reason Sharemax drew so many of their ilk.
What her savings were actually buying, later perusal of a prospectus would reveal, was “an unsecured subordinated interest rate acknowledgment of debt linked to a share”. In the rush to get her money invested, that went over Morris’s head. Her investment adviser had been “hounding” her about when she would receive her pension lump sum, she recalls.
The very morning it landed in her bank account he accompanied her to the bank, explained to the teller what she wanted, took the resulting cheque from the teller and had Morris sign some forms. Interrogation of the mechanism of the investment was limited.
“I said to him: ‘Are you absolutely positive that I’m not being conned here?’ and he said: ‘No,’” she recounts of the 20-minute transaction.
Investment advisers were notoriously keen on Sharemax, which paid very large upfront commissions: like the current Nova directors, advisers got paid regardless of whether the risk their clients were taking paid off.
And some, like Morris’s adviser, had no understanding of that risk, the office of the ombud for financial services providers, known as the FAIS ombud, has consistently ruled.
“It is apparent from [Morris’s advisor’s] version that he had no idea just what the investment was about and, as such, could not appreciate that the complainant was lending money to an entity, which entity would in turn lend the funds to a developer, leaving investors with no form of security whatsoever,” ombud Noluntu Bam ruled in Morris’s case this August.
There was also the small detail that the shopping centre Morris was supposedly investing in had not yet been built and could therefore not generate rental income to pay her 12.5% interest — the promised payments could only come from the investments of other people. Although Sharemax has never been found by a court to have been one, that is the common structure of all Ponzi schemes.
The FAIS ombud ordered Morris’s adviser to repay her investment in full, under rules that make advisers liable for losses incurred because of their negligence. For a short while it looked as if she would get back her savings. Then she was notified that her adviser had appealed against the ruling.
That leaves only the chance that the four well-paid directors of Nova will see fit to direct some money her way. But she is not overly optimistic, and she is not alone.
“The investors who complain to this office have received no credible information as to the steps that are being taken to repay their investment,” Bam wrote in May about another Sharemax-related complaint.
“Most investors see incomplete and ghost buildings all around, with no suggestion that they will ever recover their money.”
But in a June letter the Nova board told Morris that the various hurdles to cashing in on her partially built shopping centre were “constantly being addressed by the board” — just as it has been telling her since at least 2014.
Nova did not answer detailed questions. Earlier this week, chief executive Haese told Moneyweb she would no longer provide information because it “will be twisted and used out of context for the purpose of further negative reporting”.

There’s a reason the business press and most local advisers aren’t capable of telling you the truth.
It’s a common lament that when an investment scheme collapses the victims always try to find someone to blame. How often have we heard the mournful cry of thousands of investors, now badly out of pocket and in some cases penniless, that “someone should have done or said something before the collapse”.
The most recent case was that of Steinhoff, an event that has cost investors an estimated R200 billion and counting. In the same category one could include the Resilient property funds and, going back in time, Sharemax and Pickvest, the two failed property syndicates that were all the rage some 10 to 15 years ago.
More than a decade ago I found myself almost in a fistfight with the spokesman for Pickvest in the studio of RSG, the primary Afrikaans radio station. My sin was that I was trying to warn the investing public to stay away from Pickvest as well as Sharemax, as they fell into the same category of investments that I would not recommend.
But what I was doing pales in significance when compared to what Deon Basson and Vic de Klerk did over many years, issuing similar warnings. Basson wrote many articles in Finweek about these schemes and was even busy with a book on Sharemax when he died. I was given most chapters of this book barely a week before he died. I can understand why the Sharemax people paid his estate R400 000 in order to ensure it was never published.
The outrage from the promoters against people such as myself, Basson and De Klerk, was predictable. Lawyers’ letters, insults – ‘You are too stupid to understand how this scheme works’ (as I was not an accredited advisor to these schemes) – to a pathetic attempt to try to bribe me with R500 000 in a brown paper bag on condition that I stopped talking and writing about Sharemax. I protected myself from potential lawsuits by simply sticking to a simple strategy, which basically said “I will never invest my own money into this scheme nor the money of any of my clients”.
Hard as they tried, the litigious promotors could not get around this freedom of speech to legally prevent me from saying what I said for as long as I did.
I sometimes feel I should’ve tried harder to get this message out to more unsuspecting members of the public. I console myself with the fact that many people did heed my warning (and those of Basson, De Klerk and also forensic accountant Andre Prakke) and that more people didn’t invest in either of these two failed companies.
It’s still a mystery to me that neither the Financial Services Board (FSB) nor the SA Reserve Bank (Sarb) stopped these schemes earlier. I still have on record an email I sent to Gerry Anderson, a former executive at the FSB, in which I tried to alert him to my concerns about Sharemax in particular. His response: “I take note of your concerns.” A similar email to Michael Blackbeard, then at the Sarb, had a similar response.
The future is not what it used to be
This brings me to a much larger issue than simply one or two failed investment schemes. Here I am talking about the slowly unfolding economic and financial disaster in South Africa.
Here, too, I have spoken my mind over the past five years or so. I have been trying in my own little way to at least bring another perspective to the slow but relentless destruction of the personal wealth of the average and perhaps not-so-average South African investor.
In fact, my first-ever column on Moneyweb had the headline “Is it time to panic yet?” quoting from the delightful little book A Handful of Summers by tennis player Gordon Summers.
This wasn’t the feel-good-alles-sal-regkom-type of column the financial press in South Africa normally tends to produce. And very soon my earlier warnings about the unfolding unravelling of our country’s finances – and everyone invested in them – elicited the predictable responses from the various vested interests threatened.
Over time, and depending on the contents of my articles, I’ve been called “cynical and ignorant” by economist Dr Rudolf Botha, “misguided” by the FW de Klerk Foundation,” ill-informed” by Mmusi Maimane from the Democratic Alliance and “sommer a Figjam“ by more than one commentator on Moneyweb. Phew, and I don’t even get a cup of coffee for my efforts…
But I reserve a special mention of my experiences on a TV show on kykNET some four years ago, following my article, the death of the rainbow nation. In the studio to discuss the warnings contained in my article was Moneyweb editor Ryk van Niekerk, and one Dr Piet ‘Kopdoek’ Croucamp, a political scientist from the University of Johannesburg at the time. Croucamp is well known for his predilection for wearing a kopdoek on TV, the kind cyclists wear under their helmets.
Never having met him before, I tried to greet him and shake his hand before the event, but was brusquely ignored. I knew then that it wasn’t going to be a fun interview. The discussion kicked off with me giving my views on the trends in the economy and my recommendation to consider offshore investments. I could see from the corner of my eye that Croucamp couldn’t wait to verbally body-slam me, which he promptly did when given the chance.
“Commentators like you must stop talking about South Africa going the way of Zimbabwe. That is absolute rubbish as the government is busy rolling out the National Development Plan and South Africa will soon be on another growth plane.”
Not once did he even look my way, continuing to ignore me as if I had an incurable disease.
Croucamp, as a final aside, left the studio without once looking at me or even deigning to greet me or the other guest in the studio.
Today, four years later and considering what has since happened (credit downgrades, the firing of Nhlanhla Nene, economic slowdown, state capture) it is clear to me that any political scientist (a total misnomer in any way) who works for a state-funded university does not have the freedom to criticise government policy, especially if they happen to be white.
The financial and economic events since then have tended, by and large, to support my views, and the slowly unfolding financial disaster affecting each and everyone in the country, with perhaps the exception of the very rich who have all or most of their wealth offshore or linked to offshore asset classes.
Just how bad are things?
Recently Carol Paton, roving editor of Business Day, wrote an article that clearly signalled this publication’s ending of its infatuation with Ramaphoria, when she asked the question: “When will President Cyril Ramaphosa and Finance Minister Nhanhla Nene let the public in on the news of just how bad a state the country is financially?”
Not long thereafter Peter Bruce, emeritus editor of the same publication, wrote a similar article entitled The End of the Beginning. The article received several hundred comments on the website, a record for this column, I would venture.
Elsewhere, Dr Frans Cronje from the Institute of Race Relations warned about a certain grouping within the ANC NEC that was prepared to endure a dramatic collapse of wealth in order to achieve its ideological objectives.
But from the vast investment industry I could not find even one article that tried to spell out the financial implications for the average investor whose money is entrusted to these esteemed gentlemen. The one comment I did see was Old Mutual’s Johann Els saying that expropriation of land without compensation (EWC) would be positive for the country if a change to the constitution provided much-needed clarity on the ANC’s policy. But he would say that, wouldn’t he, is an expression that comes to mind.
I would therefore like to pose the same question to our country’s asset management companies who act as custodians of the nation’s savings pool. I think I read more than most and have, over the years, attended more asset manager presentations than I could care to remember. Very rarely have I found a local fund manager or asset manager with the ‘testicular fortitude’ to get up in front of an audience and tell it like it is, namely that South Africa is in a very precarious place and that the oft-predicted rosy investment outcomes, often regurgitated by more gullible journalists, are unlikely to be achieved.
Can we really be talking about investment returns “reverting to mean” when such an assumption assumes a certain kind of predictability of economic and political variables? Or when a fund manager writes about “based on long-term valuations, stocks are currently the cheapest they have ever been”, all in an attempt to drum up business despite the losses investors may eventually suffer.
It is almost impossible to make any long-term forecasts for most of South Africa’s business sectors today. This goes for mining, construction, medical services and others; all of these sectors and more have been badly affected by previous government intervention (mining, construction), and soon the medical field.
And it’s quite clear from recent government initiatives that it intends increasing its hold and control over ever-larger fields of the economy, with – in my view – fairly predictable results for those sectors involved. The extent of wealth destruction in the gold and platinum mining and construction industry over the past 10 to 15 years, as an example, has been nothing short of spectacular.
I think it is decidedly dishonest of the asset management business to exhort ordinary South Africans to save more for retirement when they themselves know the outcome is likely to disappoint, perhaps even greatly.
It is also up to the very large but often pliable investment advisory community to start having an honest conversation with their clients and to consider alternatives that might not make them popular with their banking or insurance employers.
Don’t say you haven’t been warned
The returns on Regulation 28-controlled retirement funds have not beaten, on average, the inflation rate over one to four years. When costs are included, the returns are negative over five years now. Send me an email if you have read any article in South Africa on this critical issue, on any website, apart from my own on Moneyweb.
The returns of the JSE have been last or second to last when compared to most major regions of the world over periods now ranging from one to 10 years. The JSE is minus 1% for the year while the S&P500, the broadest measure of the US economy, is plus 15%. It’s almost the same with Europe, Japan, Far East and the world.
Against its peers in the Emerging Market Index, the JSE is also trailing poorly (see graph).

The poor performance of the Top 40 index also does not tell the whole story. For a closer look at what is happening in the broader economy, consider mining, construction and manufacturing. When have you ever read or heard any of the large asset managers recommending increased offshore exposure?
In fact, as I wrote in December last year, Allan Gray reduced its offshore allocation to 25% within its living annuities, as it had no more capacity, a function of exchange controls and Regulation 28. I understand this has now been increased to 60%, but that is still not enough.
This is how the interests of our asset managers come before those of their investors. Earlier this year was probably the best time in a long while for investors to get more offshore exposure, but this was not to be. I think the local investment industry is too scared to recommend direct offshore investing lest the money end up with other asset managers who charge much less than the local managers.
Fidelity last week announced the first-ever zero-management fees for two newly launched funds, the start of what could be a major trend.
The residential property market is in a deep bear market and prices are down 22% in real terms since 2008. Property prices across the board, Cape Town included, are now failing to grow at more than 1%-3% per annum, depending on location and province. But if you read the nauseatingly optimistic press releases from the property marketing companies, you would swear that EWC is going to be good for the property market and a great time to buy. It’s not, dear reader, and the latest steps by the ANC to proceed with EWC will depress the residential property market even more. Farmland prices have crashed, together with those of exotic game and especially buffaloes, until recently also locked in a manic price bubble. That too, dear reader, has crashed spectacularly.
I simply don’t believe the regular dial-a-quote political commentators used by the popular media that EWC is only rhetoric and that it won’t happen. I think the chances of it happening are very real and that the ANC simply does not care how much wealth will be destroyed by such a disastrous course of action. As Julius Malema, leader of the EFF, said last week: “There is no turning back for the ANC and the country as far as land reform is concerned.”
There is simply no way that EWC will not lead to economic uncertainty, slower growth and possibly food shortages a year or two down the line.
Now you can differ with me, dear reader, call me names no doubt, but I simply don’t care. What I care about is my own future, but more importantly, about that of my children, grandchildren and anyone who takes the time to read such a long article. If we continue down this path chosen by the ANC, ignoring warnings from the IMF, World Bank, Wall Street Journal and many other influential financial publications, it will end poorly. And it will be ordinary investors who pay the price. Not the rich or the government elite, but the rest of us.
In short: I will not invest in it, nor do I recommend that you do. Don’t say that you have not been warned.

Moneyweb editor physically and forcefully denied entry to Nova’s AGM
Security guard says he was tasked to ensure he does not gain entry to the venue.
By Ryk van Niekerk 22 Oct 2021 15:26
There is a first for everything, and today was the first time in a career of 25 years that I have been physically and forcefully prevented from attending a corporate event.
The incident occurred on Friday morning at the Nova Property Group’s annual general meeting (AGM), held at the five-star Menlyn Boutique Hotel in Pretoria. It was an important AGM as it was the first opportunity for Nova’s shareholders to engage Nova’s board about its dire financial position.
The most recent set of annual financial statements was for the 2020 financial year. It was the third consecutive set of financial statements that Nova’s auditors had qualified and expressed concerns that material uncertainty exists for the company to continue to operate as a going concern. The CIPC also served Nova with a compliance notice, and the board had to prove its solvency and ability to trade as a going concern.
This is concerning as Nova is due to start repaying debenture holders at the end of 2021, in terms of the original Schemes of Arrangement, which tasked Nova to repay the R4.6 billion around 18 700 investors invested in Sharemax. Nova’s dire financial position, as highlighted by its auditors, makes this unlikely.
Nova’s Connie Myburgh and Dominique Haese

Physically and forcefully prevented from entering a conference room
I arrived at the AGM with a proxy form signed by an existing Nova shareholder. The proxy allowed me to represent the particular shareholder at the AGM. On arrival, Nova personnel verified and accepted the proxy, and I was required to adhere to Covid-19 protocols. For all practical purposes, I was allowed to attend the meeting.
However, a few minutes before the AGM was due to start, Nova CEO Dominique Haese, approached me and informed me that I would not be allowed to attend the meeting.
She said the reason was that my “inaccurate and damaging reportage about the Nova group over ten years” caused the group great harm and that “they” could not allow me to attend. She said the reportage caused Nova to miss out on several opportunities.
I asked Haese what authority she had that could prevent me from attending the AGM if I had a valid proxy, but she declined to answer the question.
Shortly after that, I walked to the door of the conference room where the AGM was to take place.
At the door, an individual, whom I believe to be Corrie van Rooyen, a senior employee of the Nova group, stood in the doorway and prevented me from entering. A burly security guard also suddenly appeared at my side, and he said he was tasked to prevent me from entering the conference room.
I asked Van Rooyen to allow me to access the meeting and for Connie Myburgh, Nova’s chairman and the chair of the AGM, to address my attendance at the start of formal proceedings. I also requested to speak to Myburgh.
Van Rooyen denied both requests.
At least one other attendee openly supported this proposal.
The security guard then entered the fray and firmly took hold of my arm, and pulled me away. After objecting, he released my arm. After I repeated my request to Van Rooyen, the guard pushed me away from the door with his forearms.
The guard then escorted me out of the hotel.
Media coverage
I have been covering the developments at the Nova group for many years, and I believe the company’s dire financial position is not due to my reporting, which I believe to be accurate.
The Nova board has on several occasions said that my reporting resulted in some institutions, especially financial institutions, not wanting to do business with the company due to perceived “reputational risk”.
I am aware of two such examples.
The first was in 2014 when Absa and Grindrod withdrew funding lines and potential future funding to the group. Grindrod also approached the Reserve Bank to dispel the notion that it would suffer “reputational risk” if it conducted business with Nova. The Reserve Bank refused to do so.
The second played itself out in 2018 when Standard Bank closed all of Nova’s bank accounts at the bank.

Press Ombud
Nova has also laid numerous complaints about my reporting at the Broadcasting Complaints Commission of South Africa and the Press Ombud. However, to date, every single substantive complaint was judged to be unfounded.
For example, Nova lodged more than 30 complaints with the Ombud last year, all of which were dismissed.
Apart from dismissing the complaints, the Ombud wrote a special addendum to summarise the rulings. The addendum states, among other things, that Moneyweb should be “congratulated on its fair and balanced reportage, and to be encouraged in its efforts to continue holding public figures accountable to society – which is the reason for the existence of the media in the first place.”

The resumption of the Independent Regulatory Board for Auditors’ (Irba’s) disciplinary hearing against the former auditors of the failed Sharemax property syndication scheme was adjourned early on Monday following defence objections to the evidence to be presented by a witness.
The hearing previously convened in March 2020 but was brought to a premature temporary halt by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Covid-19 halts Sharemax auditors’ disciplinary hearing
Three former Sharemax auditors, 413 improper conduct charges
Mike Maritz – counsel for the three audit practitioners facing a total of 413 improper conduct charges related to Sharemax – objected to the type of evidence Freddy Fobian would be giving at the hearing.
Fobian, a former Irba investigator who is currently working as a forensic accountant at the UK Financial Reporting Council, was not called as an expert witness.
Maritz said Advocate Kate Hofmeyr, appearing for Irba, has made it perfectly clear she wants Fobian to identify documents that underpin or support or are relevant to particular charges being faced by the three audit practitioners.
“This witness [Fobian] then becomes the arbiter of what is relevant or what underpins or what supports a particular charge. He can only do that if he expresses an expert opinion,” said Maritz.
“It brings into play expertise and he [Fobian] is not called as an expert. It is no answer to say that he will only identify documents that support or underpin the charges, but what about the other documents which she [Hofmeyr] will not refer to and has excluded because they do not suit the conclusion or the inference?
“All of that brings into play a value judgment by the witness to say a document is either relevant, or supports or underpins or not. In our view it’s entirely inadmissible,” he said.
Necessary detail
Hofmeyr said she will take Fobian through the charges and the voluminous documents in order for the documents that support the charges and their detail to be properly placed before the disciplinary hearing.
“The mere fact that we take this committee through the documents that underpin each charge cannot in and of itself be prejudicial to the respondents in any way,” she said.
Hofmeyr stressed that she will not ask Fobian questions that solicit opinion evidence or for conclusions.
“But it is very important that this committee has an opportunity to go through the bulk of these charges.
“They are lengthy, they are detailed and there are documents that are relevant to each of them that should be properly placed before you.
“It is our submission that he [Fobian] should be permitted to do so,” she said.
Hofmeyr added that she was doing this against the threat by the three audit practitioners who have indicated to the disciplinary committee that they have not yet committed to testifying at the hearing.
Chair calls for written submissions
Advocate Anthea Platt, chair of the disciplinary hearing, requested both Maritz and Hofmeyr to provide the committee with written submissions by 16:00 on Monday relating to Fobian as a witness.
Platt said she did not want the hearing to be interjected all the time, resulting in a 30-minute debate to deal with the objection.
“That will just mess up our record completely and it will just be a whole lot of legal argument as opposed to trying to hear the witness testify,” she said.
The hearing will resume on Tuesday when the committee will give its ruling on the objection.
Jacques Andre van der Merwe is facing a total of 340 charges, Danie Dreyer 40 charges and Petrus Johannes Jacobus Bekker 33 charges.
They were all directors of ACT Audit Solutions Incorporated at the time when they allegedly committed the offences, while Van der Merwe was also the managing partner of the firm.
All three previously pleaded not guilty to all the charges against them.
Earlier objection
Maritz earlier also objected to Hofmeyr highlighting three important legal instruments that operated at the time the three audit practitioners were doing their audit work and limited assurance work for Villa Holdings and Zambezi Holdings.
He said what started out as a professed brief recap of Hofmeyr’s earlier opening statement last year “has now transmigrated into a lengthy exposition of all new material that by no stretch of the imagination is a recap at all” and is new.
Maritz added that much of what Hofmeyr has said did not even find traction anywhere in the charge sheets, notably her reference to Government Notice 459 on public property syndications.
“We are not going to trial in a manner that will amount to a trial by ambush,” said Maritz.
“This appears to us to be a substantial deviation from the charge sheet and the ambit thereof so we are raising that as an objection.
“We are not going to permit an extension of the ambit of the charge sheet from our side,” he said.
The three important legal instruments referred to by Hofmeyr were:
– The Commercial Paper Notice in Government Gazette 2172 in 1994 that permitted companies to issue commercial paper without needing to be registered as a bank;
– Government Notice 459 published in 2006 issued by the Minister of Trade and Industry, which required the promoters of public property syndication schemes to make certain prescribed information available to potential investors in such a scheme; and
– The provisions of the 1973 Companies Act required a prospectus to adhere to the specifications of Schedule 3 of the Act, which required a particular report to be provided by the auditors of the company that was issuing a prospectus.
Hofmeyr admitted that she did not previously traverse the detail on these three legal instruments, but they were flagged because they are certainly among the charges the three practitioners face.
She said there is no debate that Government Notice 459 is of significance in the case.

Irba asked to investigate Nova auditor (Jul 2017)
“There is charge of a reportable irregularity that is levelled at Mr Dryer that he failed to report the reportable irregularity when he discovered that withdrawals were being made from investor funds at a point in time prior to the transfer of the property into the investment vehicle.
“That is a charge about an unlawful act and the law which governs the unlawfulness is Government Notice 459,” she said.
Hofmeyr said the auditors in this case also faced charges because they failed to include reports as required in terms of the 1973 Companies Act.

The South African Reserve Bank (Sarb) issued directives against Sharemax in 2010 despite a warning by a senior advocate about the disastrous financial consequences “an over hasty approach” could have for investors because urgent high court winding-up applications were pending against the failed property syndication company.
This was confirmed by former Sarb deputy registrar of banks Michael Blackbeard on Monday during the Independent Regulatory Board for Auditors (Irba) disciplinary hearing against the former auditors of Sharemax.

Three former Sharemax auditors, 413 improper conduct charges
Mboweni dissolves entire Irba board after controversial CEO appointment
The three audit practitioners are facing a total of 413 improper conduct charges related to Sharemax.
Jacques Andre van der Merwe is facing a total of 340 charges, Danie Dreyer 40 charges and Petrus Johannes Jacobus Bekker 33 charges.
All of them were directors of ACT Audit Solutions Incorporated at the time they allegedly committed the offences while Van der Merwe was also the managing partner of the firm.
They previously all pleaded not guilty to all the charges against them.
Blackbeard said the Reserve Bank launched a desktop investigation into Sharemax in 2007 after it received a query from a large financial institution, which later became a full forensic investigation into the company.
Explaining what underpinned the decision to issue the directive that all monies in Sharemax must be repaid, Blackbeard said this was the only remedy available to the Reserve Bank in terms of the Banks Act once it was satisfied that Sharemax’s funding model was illegal.
Blackbeard said the Reserve Bank was trying to prevent a wholesale collapse of Sharemax and did an impact study to see what the impact would be and whether there could have been a change of the funding model so the schemes could still be operated.
Sharemax fate sealed by Sarb?
Mike Maritz, counsel for the three audit practitioners, asked Blackbeard if it was fair to say that as a result of the directives issued and the negative media publicity following the issuing of the directives that it was inevitable that the Sharemax schemes could not continue.
“We were obviously hoping for a different result but taking all the facts into consideration, it was one of those difficult decisions,” Blackbeard said.
“With these schemes, you are either criticised because you are not acting quick enough or because you are acting too late,” he said.
Blackbeard confirmed that the entire Zambezi and The Villa series of prospectuses were only issued after the Reserve Bank had already earlier received the complaint or query from the financial institution.

Part 2: Shareholder structure hides how directors acquired 87.1% of Nova shares (Nov 2016)
Is the Sharemax landmark worth R1.6bn or R616m? (Jan 2017)
Maritz asked why it had taken the Reserve Bank three years to act, suggesting that had steps been taken timeously by the bank, it would not have ended up in a situation where billions of rands were collected from the public for the The Villa, for example, which to this day 10 years later is uncompleted and for practical purposes is of no use to anyone.
“The category of people who invested in the Villa scheme will be [in] an unfortunate situation where money will be lost,” he said.
Reserve Bank ‘did not drag its feet’
Blackbeard said putting it that way seems to suggest the Reserve Bank was dragging its feet but stressed the bank did not and it is unfortunate money will be lost.
He said actions were taken, there were processes to go through, and the Reserve Bank did not know Sharemax or its companies.
Blackbeard added that the Reserve Bank had to get information through other means before it could make a decision and Eckaard Le Roux of Weavind & Weavind, Sharemax’s attorneys, was very assertive in disputing that Sharemax was contravening the Banks Act.
“We did have some administrative difficulties upfront but those are processes that have to be done properly and considered responsibility,” he said.
“There are a lot of practical, legal [issues] and steps to be taken with responsibility before you tackle a big scheme like this.”
‘Harsh’ judgment
Maritz asked Blackbeard if he took issue with a 2018 judgment in the KwaZulu-Natal division of the high court in Pietermaritzburg in litigation between an investor and his broker, where Judge Johan Ploos van Amstel concluded that the cause of Sharemax’s collapse was the unforeseeable intervention of the Reserve Bank – in the absence of which, the scheme on the evidence would probably have succeeded.
He added that what went wrong and resulted in the collapse of the Sharemax schemes was the unforeseeable intervention by the Reserve Bank and not some inherent defect in the schemes.
Blackbeard said on first reading he thought the judgment was harsh and wrong.
“It was a factual finding that between contracting parties he could not find a nexus for the breach but it was an unforeseen external event, the Reserve Bank.
“He [Judge Van Amstel] does not make the finding that the Reserve Bank’s actions were wrong. The Reserve Bank was not a party to that case either,” he said.
The disciplinary hearing commenced on January 25 2021 and has been mired in frequent technical legal arguments about the admissibility of evidence, particularly evidence that constitutes opinion or interpretation.

All regulators and the police should hang their heads in shame.
Irba = not good enough
SAICA = protecting its own

The SA Reserve Bank is the Lender of Last Resort – and never wrong, period!
Objectives of the South African Reserve Bank:
I’ts key objective is to achieve and maintain price stability of the rand in the interest of balanced and sustainable economic growth within South Africa. More specifically, the bank aims to maintain the South African consumer price index to an inflation rate between 3% and 6% annually.
Other mandates include the restoration of financial stability if a systemic event occurs or is imminent; to integrate prudent regulation and supervision of financial institutions and markets, and to monitor the financial system overall.

Thanks Roy, Ryk and others for your comprehensive reporting on Sharemax, Picvest and other financial organisations. No other newspaper or financial magazine apparently wants to report on this. Why not ? This must be one of the major and biggest corporate crimes in the history of SA. With all the investigations and court cases it seems that more and more fingers point to the SA Reserve Bank and other state organizations such as FIC, CIPC, SARS, IRBA and others, whom I believe is totally non-compliant in their duties to protect the Companies Act and other Acts.
I agree with James Kingston and his comments. I repeat, what a shame and disgrace. R 9 BILLION Fraud plus another R 3 billion in investment income withheld from investors and only Moneyweb reports on this. This should be headlines in every paper and published every day, like a Zondo Commission.

Who’s interest had the complaining ‘large financial institution’ at heart, the Sharemax investor’s or his own? They only start complaining when Sharemax got involved in mega developments close to big established shopping centres, in which they probably had a stake. Using the Reserve Bank to get rid of the competition was a clever trick, but in the process many shareholders lost their money.

What a shame! The Reserve Bank appointed Neels Allant and Spies to monitor Picvest via the white horse Ortotouch escape model but in vain. Where is the proof of the monitoring process and their OUTCOME??? WHY CANT THE AUTHORITIES DEMAND ANSWERS of the so called monitoring and include other schemes as well.Dragging feet from revelant institutions led to the suffering of thousands investors who have the right to be protected against ruthless scavengers.

Sharemax was not a Ponzi or pyramid scheme – attorney
‘In the way it was constructed, there was always value.’
By Roy Cokayne 11 Feb 2021 00:01
Weavind & Weavind director Eckaard Le Roux, the attorney for Sharemax, has refuted suggestions that the property syndication company was a Ponzi or pyramid scheme.
Giving evidence during an Independent Regulatory Board for Auditors (Irba) disciplinary hearing against the former auditors of Sharemax this week, Le Roux said media reports claimed that what Sharemax was doing was in contravention of the Banks Act.
“It was unlawful, it was illegal. Some reports even went as far as saying it was a Ponzi scheme. I don’t think [that] is correct.
“I don’t think it is a Ponzi scheme. The way in which it was constructed, there was always value.
“It was a proper business operation in the sense that a property was bought as a going concern and it was constructed on the basis that the money paid by the PropCo to the developer were advance payments on the purchase price.
“At all times, value was created because that money was used to construct the shopping centre,” he said.

Sharemax was the promoter of various property syndication schemes, including The Villa and Zambezi retail parks.
Le Roux said Sharemax promoted 49 successful property syndication schemes prior to The Villa and Zambezi.
“The Villa imploded but that was because of the intervention of the Reserve Bank. I personally never received any query from any investor as to the validity of the scheme. I never received any complaints from investors that they had not received the monthly interest that they were entitled to,” he said.
Le Roux also rejected suggestions there was any dishonesty by the promoters, auditors or himself in The Villa and other syndications.
He said each time a syndication was properly researched, and at all times the promoter tried to comply with whatever legislation was applicable at the time, as well as the advice he had given, and that there was compliance.
Le Roux said prior to The Villa and Zambezi, Sharemax only syndicated shopping malls or office parks that were already completed, adding that there was a provision in the Companies Act that money that was accepted from investors should remain in trust until the minimum subscription had been achieved.
He said Sharemax’s prospectuses from 2003 were drafted on the basis that the money raised would only be released from the trust account when transfer of the property took place.
These prospectuses were used as a template for all the syndications that followed.
However, Le Roux said The Villa and Zambezi syndications were different in that they were still in the process of being constructed and transfer would only take place once construction was completed, the tenants took occupation and the net rental could be used to determine the purchase price.
Provision ‘inadvertently not changed’
Le Roux said the specific provision in the prospectuses indicating that the money raised from investors would be held in a trust account until transfer of the properties “was inadvertently not changed to make it clear that the money that investors invested would be used to fund the construction of the building.
“Without those funds the scheme could not work. You could not fund the construction of the building,” he said.
The charge sheet of the three auditors refers to the Consumer Affairs (Unfair Business Practices) Act of 1988 and Government Notice 459, which specifically relate to property syndication schemes and, among other provisions, require that money obtained for syndication schemes be kept in trust until the transfer of the property being syndicated into the syndication vehicle.
Le Roux confirmed that he considered this notice, but it was his view that the definition of property syndication schemes in this notice was not applicable to Sharemax.
He obtained the opinion of a senior advocate, which confirmed that the notice did not apply.
Le Roux said three complaints were laid at the Law Society against him and Weavind & Weavind related to the Sharemax syndication schemes, but two of the complaints were subsequently withdrawn.
He said he appeared before the investigation committee of the Law Society and explained the prospectuses and the way it worked, the Banks Act, the Harmful Business Practices Notice and compliance with all this legislation.
“Subsequent to that, the Law Society decided that we would not be charged. To my knowledge, there was no criminal proceeding commenced against any of the directors [of Sharemax],” he said.
Under cross-examination, Le Roux said he included the definition of public property syndications from the government notice in his correspondence with the registrar of banks at the SA Reserve Bank, despite his conclusion that the notice did not apply to Sharemax, because there was no other definition of a public property syndication.
Le Roux said that, on a strict interpretation of that definition, it held that an assembly of investors was to invest in a vehicle whose sole assets were commercial or retail property and where the investors share in the profits and losses in these properties.
With an investment in a property syndication scheme promoted by Sharemax, the investors invested in HoldCo, but HoldCo did not own the shopping centre and the sale of business agreement stated that the sole asset was not the commercial property, he said.
“It was not a property that was purchased, it was a business that was purchased,” he said.
“And in the agreement, it was stated [that] you are buying the property and you buy the right, title and interest in the lease agreements and you buy fixtures and fittings. It is more than that [property],” he said.
Le Roux admitted there were many other provisions in the government notice he ensured compliance with within the prospectuses.
He said he picked those provisions he thought Sharemax could comply with and included them in the prospectuses.
Advocate Kate Hofmeyr, appearing for Irba, referred Le Roux to several examples in The Villa 14 prospectus which conveyed to investors that their funds would not be used before registration of transfer of the property.
Hofmeyr said they will argue in due course that the inclusion of a provision in the prospectus about investor funds remaining in a trust account until the transfer of the property was not simply an error that crept in from previous prospectuses.
“It is a provision of the prospectus that is consistent with other parts of the prospectus,” she said.
“It is consistent with the indication that was given to investors in their income plan attached to each 10 prospectuses that the funds would be retained in your trust account until transfer of the property.
“It is consistent with the way in which the cash flow forecast was put together, with no cash flow movements being shown in the first two years.
“And it is consistent with the statement in the pro forma financial information that explained that no income statement could be provided because funds would only be advanced to Villa Investments from March 1, 2011.
“That degree of commonality in various parts of the prospectus, we will say, means that this was not just an error,” she said.
Le Roux disagreed, stressing it was an error by him.
He said Hofmeyr was ignoring the other parts of the prospectus where it was stated how the monies would be used.
“Anyone that read through the prospectus would have understood that the development could not take place without the monies being used to finance the construction of the building, otherwise it could not work.
“The deed of sale that was attached to the prospectus clearly showed how the payments would have been made. So no, I do not agree with you,” he said.
The three audit practitioners – Jacques Andre van der Merwe, Danie Dreyer and Petrus Johannes Jacobus Bekker – are collectively facing a total of 413 improper conduct charges related to Sharemax.
They were all directors of ACT Audit Solutions Incorporated at the time when they allegedly committed the offences.
All three of them previously pleaded not guilty to all the charges against them.
The hearing is continuing.

Le ROux – paid by, and possibly even schooled by the great Connie Myburgh – – – – – what a lovely bunch of people.
What happened to Adv Jan Smit – is he still on the board? Has he resigned or is he also singing from the same hymn sheet as Le Roux?

With the same logic, one could say that VBS was a correctly structured bank, but then the directors looted the assets.

Yes, Until the Villa and Zambezi did not work out as planned. If you looked at the prospectus for the 2, there was no income generated from operations and the only way that the investors could be paid was from investor funds…investor money paying investors returns = ponzi
Then came the great switcheroo to try an bail the 2 projects out, where the other syndicated properties(each its own entity) were bundled into one entity under an “arrangement scheme” by implication that investors in the other syndicates were going to lose their money if they did not agree to this. Just prior to that some of the syndications were sold and there was a hard and fast marketing campaign to invest in he Villa and Zambezi with the proceeds of said sales. There were a lot of incentives offered to brokers to do this. This all compounded into the great switcheroo and there by sleight of hand…Nova was born.
JW Botha, A Brand as directors at the time were complicit in facilitating this messy move and then left the new board of Nova to deal with the mess. They have since disappeared off the radar.
The shareholding of Nova should also be investigated as no past, future or present directors should be entitled to any shareholding(by any means..eg trusts, companies etc) whatsoever as this was solely investor money from other syndications that floated this “Titanic” to try and rescue the white elephants of Zambezi and the Villa.
The warning at the time. Change of auditors from Price Waterhouse Coopers to ACT solutions

Eventually the truth comes out.
It always amazes me how some people like to comment without facts. It is usually people who have a specific agenda and sometimes people who like to be seen or heard regardless of the truth. See below some facts that most people did not know:
1. Sharemax was founded and owned by Botha, Brand and Schoeman. They were the directors from inception;
2. Around 40 trading properties were promoted by Sharemax and bought and owned by the public before the SARB intervened;
3. The late journalist Deon Basson was constantly harrasing the group trying to make them out as crooks;
4. Basson was sued by Sharemax and two weeks before Basson had to disclose to the court who funded his legal costs he had an heart attack and passed away. The Sharemax group was confident that Basson was funded by liquidater Erly Bester. Basson also traveled to the different property projects with Bester before he passed away;
5. Basson wrote articles about various properies that were promoted by Sharemax to the public including “Die Bluff se Bluff” and “Groenkloof se Melk Kan”. Since Deon Basson passed away, all the properties that Basson wrote about were sold by Sharemax after approval by the public investors who owned these properties. of each of these properties that Basson wrote about, the investors received all the interest that was projected to them as well as capital growth on the syndication price that the investors invested initially. As an example, the investors who invested in the Bluff property payed R 76 million for the property. They received on average 10% interest that was paid to them monthly. 36 months later this property was sold for R 113 million and the investors received millions of capital growth in 36 months. A lot of people will now realise that Deon Basson’s assumptions were completely wrong as the properties that Deon wrote about were all success stories;
6. The reason why Sharemax imploded was because of the media and the SARB and you will just now realise why;
7. The SARB sent inspectors to investigate if Sharemax was contravening the Banks Act. The inspectors were sitting at Sharemax offices for weeks at a time since 2008 to 2010 inspecting the company and the products. Now the interesting part. The reason why the SARB stopped Sharemax from completing the Villa was due to the investment instrument that they were using. It was a R1 share and R999 loan account. As an example: the investor invested in the The Bluff Ltd. The Ltd held 100% shares in The Bluff Pty(Ltd). The property was bought and transferred into the Pty(Ltd). The simple reason for this was so that the investor could invest in a public company who loaned the money to the Private Companty to buy the property. The rental income in the private Company was paid to the Ltd who paid it as interest on loan to the investor for tax benefits for the investor as dividend tax was not payable — that is why the investor received an income of around 10% pa. The private company with the property was therefor owned by the public company who’s shareholders were the investors. The going concerns were all bought cash and free of any bonds;
8. The SARB inspectors could open any one of any prospectuses promoted by Sharemax to see on page two (in bold) the investment instrument which was a share with a linked loan. But no, they sat there inspecting right through 2008, sitting and observing how Sharemax signed an agreement for the Villa and sitting for another 18 months and 19 prospectuses before sending a love letter to Sharemax saying that they must stop the project as they now find that they contravene the Banks Act. I suppose is was a coincidence that the Villa project was exactly in the middle of the development and exactly half the funds needed were raised. It was said to be an adminestrative contravention;
9. Sharemax directors had a meeting with Mr Blackbeard of the SARB explaining to him the damage and chaos that will be created if they can not at least continue to complete the project and also disagreed with the finding of the SARB. Sharemax directors asked Mr Blackbeard to please go unopposed with them to court to get an declaraty order about their difference of opinion. Mr Blackbeard refused;
10. Sharemax was forced to change the Villa structure which they hastely did. Now the rest of the Villa would be promoted with only a Ltd and therefor the income from the property was only payable to the investors after dividend tax was deducted and paid to SARS and the investor would get around 2-3 % interest less per year, which was closer to the going bank interest rate of the time;
11. Sharemax was again allowed to carry on promoting the Villa. Unfortunately, after the next Villa prospectus were nearly fully subscribed, Jacques Pauw wrote in the Sunday paper Rapport “Sharemax Beleggers Dalk Al Hulle Geld Kwyt”, telling the public that Sharemax was contravening the Banks Act. Needless to say the investments immediately dried up and the Villa project were sterilised. You can decide who caused this trauma for the investors, financial advisors and Sharemax;
12. Obviously there were liquidaters who saw a carcas to feed on and the SARB then rushed in and signed a directive onto all the property companies and the directors to repay the investors;
13. The directors took the decision of the SARB on review;
14. There was a hold on the review while everyone tried to save the Villa;
15. Some big shots were called in to help, including Dawie Roodt and Connie Meyburg;
16. The one founder of Sharemax, Mr Schoeman sold his shares and left in 2006, the other two founding members and directors Botha and Brand decided to part ways and did not go along with the 311 schemes of arrangements. They sold their Sharemax shares in 2010 and left for good;
17. Meyburg and two of the existing Sharemax directors, Haese and Koekemoer went along with the setup of the 311 arrangement and Nova and Sharemax. The other two existing Sharemax directors Viljoen and Goosen also decided to resign as directors and left and so also Dawie Roodt after sanctioning of the 311;
18. Since then Sharemax had new shareholders. Haese is still with Nova and Koekemoer resigned from Nova in 2018;
19. Attorney Eckaard Le Roux has never had any dealings with and never did any work for Nova or Meyburg. Le Roux’s involvement also stopped around the time that Botha and Brand sold their sharemax shares and left;
20. The same time that the SARB stopped Sharemax, their inspectors inspecting Realcor in the Western Cape instructed Realcor to change their investment structure to a share and linked loan, the same structure that they stopped Sharemax for. After Realcor changed around R400 mil of investments to this structure the inspectors instructed Realtor to change the instrument again;
21. The investors who invested in the Sharemax promoted projects decided to cancel their investments for a new instrument in the Nova 311 Schemes of Arrangement. This was approved and sanctioned by the High Court after more than 95% of investors voted for this;
22. Sharemax was always operating with an FSB license and received regular inspections. The Sharemax license was never suspended and eventually lapsed after it stopped operating;
23. Botha and Brand were instructed by the Fin Ombud about 5 years ago to repay an investor and after taking the case to court the Ombud lost and had to pay Botha and Brand more than R500 000. I wonder what IRBA will have to pay the Auditors if they don’t settle and this hearing goes to court;
25. A very interesting fact is that the SARB retracted the directive that they issued against the companies and Botha, Brand, Goosen and Viljoen and therefor, as we speak today, there is no finding of any contravention, not even an administrative one against the founders of Sharemax or the companies.
26. Another interesting fact is that PIC were also investigated by the SARB and the SARB sent a letter to a PIC investor in 2011, one year after they stopped Sharemax, confirming to the investor that there are too many different opinions and they can therefor not find that PIC contravened the Banks Act. PIC was also using the same instrument as Sharemax;
27. My conclusion is that the origional Sharemax sharelolders and directors did not do anything wrong. They were tried and “found guilty” by the media. They have since end 2010 had no involvement with Sharemax and Nova. All investors decided to swop the instruments that were promoted by the origional Sharemax for instruments in Nova in 2010/2011;
The Villa was structured in the following way. The development was to be done by the developer. The purchase price was determined by a cap rate against the rental income to be determined on completion of the property. The agreement stated that the investors raised the money and pay, less the promotors fee, the money to the developer AS PART OF THE PURCHASE PRICE. At completion the exact purchase price would have been determined and the balance of the purchase price would have been paid to the developer on date of transfer of the property. There were bonds registered against the property on behalf of the investors as security. The developer agreed to pay the interest to the investors. As the investor received the purchase price, which included the development funds as well as his profit, he was in any case in position to pay the interest. The developer already bought and demolished 30 houses with his own funds and also got the development rights. By the time that the SARB stopped Sharemax from completing the project around 60% of the lettable space was successfully let, including a 10 year lease with Checkers for 14 000 m2.

Property syndication advisers’ appeals against ombud decisions dismissed by tribunal
By Martin Hesse Time of article published Oct 5, 2021
The Financial Services Tribunal has dismissed appeals against several determinations issued by the Financial Advice Ombud (also known as the FAIS Ombud) where financial advisers were ordered to compensate clients for losses after advising on inappropriate investment products. All involved investments in high-risk property syndication schemes that collapsed, resulting in huge losses for investors, many of them pensioners.
1. Johann Nell Financial Services. This was an appeal against two determinations issued by the ombud after this adviser persuaded two clients to invest R107 000 and R180 000 respectively in the ill-fated Sharemax property syndication scheme.
2. Ernst Venter Brokers. In this case, the broker was ordered to pay an elderly farmer R200 000 in compensation for advising him to invest in two Sharemax property investments.
3. Becker Financial Advisers. This firm was ordered by the ombud to repay an elderly woman the R650 000 she had received in a divorce settlement and, on the firm's advice, invested in another property syndication that collapsed, PIC Syndication.
4. Jose Castro. In this case, Castro was ordered to repay two investments, one of R100 000 and one of R790 000, a client made in two Sharemax developments.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Enough lies have been
told. It is time for South Africans to learn the truth.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The author will inform
the reader about these lies and although it will be a shocking experience, the
time is right for ordinary people to know the truth because it is ordinary
people who must rectify these lies by voting to insure that a better future
will evolve. By figure of speech, every person if sitting in a theatre can see
what is happening on stage. The secret is to "see" what is going on
behind the curtains.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">One of the biggest
mistakes white South Africans have made was to follow their leaders blindly
because these leaders had helped to set them free from British rule. Actually
the voters had liberated themselves by voting - not the political leaders.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Because of this newfound freedom, whites
followed politicians into apartheid. Many people in their hearts didn't want to
follow, but because they where set free from British rule by these people, they
still support them blindly. Black South Africans now face the same dilemma by
blindly following their leaders who liberated them from apartheid, but they now
have the knowledge that whites didn't have. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Don't follow leaders blindly! <o:p></o:p></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Most modern democracies
accept that ten years is a fair chance of implementing changes that can be felt
by the voter. People shouldn't be afraid to vote for another party if the other
party does have a better policy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It has
been scientifically proven that it is healthy to have a different government
every ten years. In any case, any political party blaming other people for
their non-performance is guilty of not keeping its promises to the people. This
book is about the lies being told to <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">every
</b>South African. This book is not about the past but the present and the
future. However, mistakes of the past are important, so the right decisions can
be made to grow into the future.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Because of a budget
restraint the author was not able to make this book as comprehensive as he
would have wanted it to be. However, the reader will get the picture and
finally the truth will set everybody free. The reader will be able to identify
future lies and make their voices heard by making their democratic choice with
a cross at the voting stations at the next election. Remember politicians are
trained public speakers and know the art of convincing people to believe in
them.<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><o:p></o:p></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p>

about spies, informers, agents and co-operators. The main focus is on three
secret groups behind the political scenes, manipulating politicians and
business executives whom were/are spies, informers, agents and co-operators. A
lot of names are mentioned, but the reader can be sure that <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">these people won't acknowledge their
involvement or their activities</b>. Because a major discrediting campaign will
be launched against the author if, or when they discover who he is, he has
decided to write this book under a nom-de-plume. It will give him a breathing
space to counter any actions against him. It will also show the reader what
type of people are involved and confirm that what is written, is the truth.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

they are untouchable because of their office as the President or a Minister
must know that they are <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">public servants,
</b>in other words they are <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><u>servants
of the people who voted for them. </u></b>The ANC must also remember that with
the last election, only about 60% of people voted. Out of approximately 25
million people who are registered to vote, 10 million did not vote for them; in
other words they don't support the ANC. Of the 15 million who voted, they only
drew 60% of the votes. In other words only 9 million people support the ANC. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">That means 16 million people do not support
the ANC alliance.<o:p></o:p></b></span></p>

mention that the different strategies the secret groups follow are very
flexible because the plans revolve around the future and nobody can accurately
predict what will happen tomorrow, but there is method in all this madness.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

groupings in South Africa that can be regarded as being very influential. Each
of these groups represents a different ideology and tries to manipulate the
South African government who, in essence, is the African National Congress
(ANC) and its alliances, the South African Communist Party (SACP) and the
labour movement Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU). Each of these
groups has a strong support base from different countries abroad, officially as
well as unofficially. The different groups will subsequently be surgically
dissected, and very important, without any bias.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

had discovered is the Enlightened Action Group (EAG). The author had given the
name to the group because there is no specific name for them, although they
base their plans on Joseph’s plan from the BIBLE (The MOSSAD is using the same
principle in recruiting agents). The EAG meet on a regular basis and the
association in essence is economic. It is not limited to South Africa but the
whole region of SADC. The Enlightened Action Group (EAG) is also called the Old
Boys Club, Third Force, Action 2000, the Brotherhood and the Inner Circle. For
practical purposes the abbreviation EAG will be used throughout. </span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The
EAG was established during middle to late eighties when it became apparent that
apartheid’s days were numbered. With British power still in the back of their
minds the so called Super Afrikaner (EAG) started formulating a plan to again
get into power by the year 2004 (The Afrikaner had decided after British rule
that they would never be ruled by somebody else). Important to mention is the
fact that the EAG know that whites will never rule the country again, well, not
directly anyway. General Tienie GROENEWALD had mentioned to the author that
they (referring to the Freedom Front) accepted the fact that whites would not
rule South Africa again.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="color: black;">The EAG methodological process
in achieving their goals is very complex. They make extensive use of
compartmentalisation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For example, in
the economic compartment they have different projects like SUNROCK and ODESA
and the people involved with SUNROCK only know about SUNROCK. So there are a lot
of names within the group, and even within these groups the people don't know
the bigger picture. The name EAG was given to this group by the author and is
not its official name, because nobody outside the group knows the real name.
General Tienie GROENEWALD had mentioned, when the author showed him the
illustration (Figure 1) that he can agree with the total illustration, except
the name EAG. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

invented the name EAG, and the name EAG was only known in the Intelligence
services, it is quite obvious that the Intelligence services did observation on
these people and then made use of its informers in the media to publish the
articles. Bantu HOLOMISA was also present but his role will be explained later
(he is not a member of the EAG, as the EAG consists of only white people).
There was also an article in THE STAR newspaper on 5 February 1997 with the
heading: "Shadowy group "seeks to seize power by 2004''. CHRIS STEYN

of the South African Police Services Internal Security branch. All reports were
also channelled to SASS with the knowledge of President Nelson MANDELA, Dullah
OMAR and Barry GILDER (the then deputy director general of SASS whom the author
had met personally at the old SASS building). In the STAR article the author
had changed the name Cayman Islands that was in the police report, to Canary
Islands in the SASS report. The name, Canary Islands was used, so it was SASS
who leaked the report. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

the existence of the EAG was given to the author in person when he was asked to
appear before a panel of the National Intelligence Co-ordinating Committee
(NICOC) at Embassy House during August 1997. Before the meeting Bertie JACKSON
of SASS had told him that they (SASS) do have evidence now of the existence of
the EAG. The author's report that he had to sign, refers to him as the
"Head source on the EAG", The summary of this report of the NICOC
meeting was given to the author to sign by Ivan PILLAY of SASS. Ivan PILLAY is
married to Evalyn GRUNDLING who had written the book on the apartheid assassins
and it was she who made the links of the assassins to Jean-Ives OLIVIER and
Alian GUENON.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

newspaper articles were published referring to a secret group trying to
destabilise the country. For example, the Rapport newspaper published an
article on 30-11-1997 with the heading "Mandela se Spioene"
(Mandela's Spies). Nelson MANDELA also referred to a secret group of people
trying to destabilise the country together with former ANC spies (</span><!--[if supportFields]><span

JACKSON, SASS on various occasions had the same problem with Nelson MANDELA
confronting people with sensitive information given to the President in good
faith. This behaviour hampered various secret investigations and prevented the
Intelligence community to successfully complete their investigations, because
for all practical purposes he had warned the people.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

of the expression New World Order, both with the same meaning. According to
former President PW BOTHA, various attempts had been made by different people
while he was President to make South Africa part of the New World Order. He
bluntly refused because he would not sell out the Afrikaner people. According
to him he was approached three times. The first time Anton RUPERT approached
him, the second time by Meyer KHAN and the last time by Henry KISSINGER. After
he refused the third attempt and just after his heart attack, as he put it
" I was betrayed by my own people". PW BOTHA confronted FW DE KLERK
afterwards and told FW that he had sold out the Afrikaner and that he (FW) had
received money from Anton RUPERT. FW reply was: "Yes but I did not keep
all the money for myself. I had given a lot of the money to the Potchefstroom
University". <o:p></o:p></span></p>

the silent support of the major players in the globalisation process. The major
players don't want the ANC into power, the reason being their relationship with
the SACP and all the ‘black sheep’ in international politics like China and
Libya.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

want to achieve is a new political movement (controlled by the EAG) in power,
as well as control over the economy. The initial plan to achieve this goal was
to recruit as many high ranking ANC, COSATU and SACP officials as possible,
establish a new political movement, and let all of them walk over to the new
movement. Also part of this process is to destabilise the country to the point
of anarchy, blaming the ANC for it and alienating the people against the ANC.
When the leaders walk over to the new movement with the people following, the
process would have been completed. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

leaders of the ANC national list before both elections were directly or
indirectly, part of the EAG plan. (Former President Nelson MANDELA had
mentioned at an ANC NEC meeting that he has files on all of them regarding the
NEC members’ involvement/co-operation with the apartheid Intelligence.) The
reason for also including people indirectly is because some people are used
through the direct people without their knowledge. A resent example is the
investigation into the arms deal where “clean” people where used to cover up
for the “criminals” within the ANC, so the “clean” people became contaminated
in the process.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

initial plan, but as explained earlier, the plan is very flexible and has
evolved into different scenarios. The present plan consists of different
outcomes depending on the various outside influences from say the ‘Wise Men.’ Politically
the idea is to establish alliances and concentrate on issues, moving away from
ideologies. The second part of the plan is to create a split within the ANC,
COSATU and SACP alliance. It is foreseen that COSATU and the SACP will break
away and form a party to the left of the present ANC that will be called
something like the SOCIALIST PARTY or LABOUR PARTY. During August 2000 the
media also started speculating on a split in the alliance, confirming the
author’s stance since 1996 (</span><!--[if supportFields]><span

disintegrated through Thabo MBEKI with internal conflict, scandals and bad
management. This already started taking place during August 2000 through
apparent "leaked" information on the performance of certain Ministers
who were going to be ‘re-deployed.’ Also taking place is the conflict between government
and the labour unions. There is also a marked increase in issue-based groups
voicing their opinions. Already within the ANC, senior Ministers are starting
to voice their disapproval of Thabo MBEKI. Thabo MBEKI is playing a very
dangerous game with the EAG and according to sources lives in fear of his life
bordering on paranoia, but it can also be attributed to his drug use, as it is
a known symptom of prolonged cocaine use. It is rumoured in the Intelligence
circles that Thabo needs a glucose drip in the mornings to start his day
because of excessive drinking. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

information indicates that the EAG plan is much more complicated than described

States of Southern Africa. It wants USSA to be a Super power/region. If you
combine the present SADC countries’ minerals together it can be done - all
strategic resources can be found in the area. It can also explain the reason

of the top structure of SADC countries’ political figures. The author knows
certain of these syndicate leaders personally. A leader in SADC that doesn't want
to co-operate is simply overthrown. It therefore can explain the destabilising
of the region since 1994; all SADC countries since 1994 experienced some form
of destabilising and in most cases it can be linked back to the South African
Intelligence Services. It is important to note that part of the Wise Men’s plan
also includes destabilising SADC for the same reason as the EAG. The EAG is at
this moment very active in neighbouring countries to South Africa forming
alliances with politicians and settling into the economies. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

investigating the ADLER group, and source B was part of the Special Projects

MANDELA, Riaan STANDER and Mathews PHOSA. Source C is a prominent politician
and source D, a high profile businessman.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

friends with various high profile persons including Sydney MUFAMADI. According
to another source in the Scorpions, there is a document at the Department of
Trade and Industry stating that source A and MUFAMADI are involved in Exxon. It
is important to look at the involvement of Wolfgang BAUER and Gunter POLTZL,
former friend/associate of CHAUVELLI, LIPMAN of Lipman Jewellers and Andrew
MZIZI of the Inkatha Freedom Party [IFP] in the Exxon deal. The first person
that informed the author about the existence of the Wise Men was source B. He
mentioned that the group meets once a month and consists mostly of the old
guard from the Rivonia trial. Source B mentioned four people, Essop PAHAD, Bill
VENTER, Govan MBEKI and Walter SISULU, but apparently there are about ten
people in this group. Subsequently, source A also mentioned Danie CRONJE,
Chairman of ABSA. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

the author that Cyril RAMAPHOSA, to whom he speaks at least once a week, and
various other high profile Reconstruction and Development Program (RDP)
appointees, have mentioned to him that they (RDP appointees) can't do anything
without the approval of the Wise Men (WM). Every speech that the RDP appointees
make is written by the Wise Men.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the existence of the Wise Men came from source C. The source had mentioned to
the author that Mathews PHOSA, Tokyo SEXWALE, Cyril RAMAPHOSA and others had
tried to stop the Wise Men during the ANC congress in 1995. According to the
source Nelson MANDELA had told them at the congress that all major decisions
within the ANC would be handled by the Wise Men. It is possible that Nelson
MANDELA is now also a member of the Wise Men.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

approach of this group is also multidimensional. However, the major threat of
the Wise Men is in that they are hardened Communist. To be more accurate, it is
a modern version of the old communist presidium. In communist ideology the
presidium consists of the persons behind the scenes, primarily
controlling/watching over the government, but also overseeing that the ideology
is implemented throughout. Therefore, they also will try to act as catalyst
against the EAG. To illustrate practically, Gibson THULA (Chairman of the South
African Diamond Board), who is part of the EAG plan, will be neutralised by the
Wise Men by dissolving the Diamond Board and establishing a new government-controlled
institution. In sport there are many more examples. The "government"
is taking control of all major sports, particularly traditional white sports.
Typical communist doctrine is to alienate the people from their traditions on
the one hand, but on the other hand to also get their hands on the money side.
It is also apparent in the South African labour union situation,
"government" implementations are one sided, which COSATU follows but
not necessarily agreeing, while private implementations always have problems.
Recently these differences are being used to create a rift between the parties
that can lead to a split. This will be exactly what the EAG wants to achieve.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

is the apparent information that was leaked by the media during August 2000
that Cyril RAMAPHOSA formed part of an American/British plan to get rid of
Thabo MBEKI. Recent Plot allegations now make sense considering that the EAG
are closely connected to the CIA and MI6. This was part of the EAG plan in the
beginning of 1996. However source C had mentioned to the author that this
article that was published on 27 August 2000 in RAPPORT wasn't actually
correct. According to the source there was an assassination attempt on Thabo
MBEKI. If this information is true it means that the Wise Men must be behind
the assassination attempt, who in turn would try to blame it indirectly on the
EAG. However, the role of the Islamic Extremists within the ranks of the Wise
Men is also a point of concern, and it wouldn't be a surprise if they had a
finger in the pie regarding the assassination. The Wise Men are also unhappy
with Thabo MBEKI because of his drug and drinking problem. If the assassination
attempt were done by the EAG, there wouldn't have been an article about Cyril
RAMAPHOSA. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

source D had said Cyril RAMAPHOSA is also under control of the Wise Men, the
article must be the work of Thabo MBEKI. Strategically it makes great sense
because the one problem the Wise Men and the EAG have is the fact that there is
no obvious replacement for MBEKI. As a source in the scorpions had mentioned on
various occasions to the author is that Cyril RAMAPHOSA is the actual number
one person within the ANC. Therefore for MBEKI to survive he has to neutralise
RAMAPHOSA while explaining allegations of the plot.<span style="mso-tab-count: 2;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

and Islamic ideologies are so close, the question regarding the role and
influence of the Islamic Extremists must be put under a microscope, as well
taking into account that the KABAL is financially supporting the Wise Men. On
Sunday, 10 September 2000, almost all the papers mentioned that PAGAD is behind
the terror campaign in the Western Cape and that they get support from abroad.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the papers failed to mention was that: <o:p></o:p></span></p>

that South Africa forms part of a worldwide program by the Islamic Extremists.
Muslims occupy some key government positions. These individuals, within the ANC
government, are using their positions of authority to promote anti-Zionist
sentiment. This strategy can clearly be seen in the build-up to the anti-racism
conference that was recently held in Durban.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">It is also important to
note the apparent involvement of Muslims in the various big Government
contracts like the arms, C-cell and taxi industries. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

Generals Constant VILJOEN and Tienie GROENEWALD on a hunting trip they took him
on before the '94 elections, that he would always be a communist. The only
problem with communism previously was that they never gained control over the
economy. They still do not control the economy and never will, because the EAG
does, but they do control almost all RDP appointments with an iron fist. All
press releases and public speeches of these RDP appointees are overseen by the
Wise Men. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

these appointees live in fear and he had never seen anything like this before.
They will go against their own better judgement but not against the Wise Men. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

extensive use of the media (an old communist instrument) to disguise their (ANC
alliance) incompetence and blame all their "weaknesses" on apartheid.
This is a very dangerous game the Wise Men are playing because they are busy with
a process where they alienate white and black and in the process cause more
racial divisions than apartheid ever did. Isolated racial incidents are blown
out of proportion creating the false impression that it is the norm.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As far as possible they also don’t allow any

started creating business for themselves because of the fact that the economy
is controlled financially by the EAG. If you look at simple things like number
plates, new drivers’ licences, new passports, new firearm laws to mention but a
few, it all costs money. It also benefits certain people. It is interesting to
take a look at which people got these tenders. Take then into account these
people whom own their own businesses, cannot speak freely and have to get
approval of the Wise Men before they are allowed to make even a public speech.
It is then pretty obvious that the Wise Men/PRESIDIUM/communism is very much
alive and flourishing. It goes beyond comprehension how the ANC can allow this
to happen, considering that the SACP only has about 18 000 members. If you look
further into the privatisation of ESCOM, TELKOM, TRANSNET and DENEL, it will be
quite interesting to see who are going to be the major shareholders.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

communist nature of the "government" (Wise Men) is the name changes
of streets, towns, airports, dams, etc. This is typical of communist tactics. What
amazes the author is that there are supposedly educated people among the people
of colour, but these people although openly (not publicly) unhappy about the
situation in the country, don't try and rectify the situation either by
becoming involved with politics or by publicly supporting somebody else. But
taking into account what the author exposes, it should not come as a surprise
that people don't want to become active in politics because of the rotten
nature of South African politics.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

into consideration is the role of DIS. DIS "was" the ANC Intelligence
agency. Within DIS there were different departments. One of them was, or still
is the security department of DIS. Most of these people are presently in
directorships or higher positions in the Intelligence services. Who are these
people loyal to? South Africa? No.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

supporting the Wise Men are China, Russia, Pakistan, Libya, Palestine, Iran,
Iraq and India. Taking into account how many of them are also Muslim countries,
the reader will begin to understand the enormity of the problem. It also
becomes logical to ask oneself about the relationship between communism and the
religion of Islam.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

information indicates that the Wise Men were infiltrated by the EAG when it
became apparent that the EAG had been exposed. It also serves as a mechanism to
identify problem areas that hadn't been covered by the EAG’s initial plan. One
of the other main reasons for the Wise Men is to create friction within its own
ranks without causing too many problems for the white group EAG, is because it
is black on black confrontation. It also serves as a bridging group to the
Islamic Extremists. Infiltrating and establishing the Wise Men by the EAG is a
typical example of the EAG conniving to position themselves for manipulation
purposes, but it also shows the tactical brilliance that makes them very
dangerous.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

ISLAMIC EXTREMISTS’ activities are also known. An illustration is hereby
included (Figure 3). They are busy with a seven-year plan for South Africa. The
American Muslim leader FARRAKHAN of the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">NATION
OF ISLAM</b> organisation, who visited South Africa a couple of years ago, is
extremely active in South Africa. Their activities and recruitment process is
far more advanced than anybody would like to admit. Their objective is to make
South Africa a Muslim state.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

extensive programme of recruitment, especially in the rural and poor areas,
among blacks. This group makes extensive use of the high levels of crime to
recruit blacks. Even the notorious robber Chauke converted to Islam. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

more advanced training in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. The best recruits
from here go abroad, especially to Afghanistan and Lebanon. As indicated by the
author earlier in the chapter, ties need not be with the Extremists alone
because Islam is a way of living, not just an ideology. The ties can also be to
ordinary Muslim organisations. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

Intelligence agency, MOSSAD, has been monitoring these activities for quite
some time and has developed an extensive network in South Africa. (MOSSAD is
making use of AIN as a front). AIN is the link between the HIZBOLLAH (A MOSSAD
operation gone astray) and PAGAD.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

Extremists already firmly entrenched in the South African Intelligence
services, they have started with a counter operation through the official
structures. Police Intelligence has for the past five years been busy with an
investigation into MOSSAD activities in South Africa. When the author mentioned
this to Bertie JACKSON and Ivan PILLAY of SASS, they then mentioned that the
police had stolen the project from SASS. Mo SHAIK, a Muslim and senior member
in NICOC was responsible for the exposure of Operation VULA of the ANC,
according to Percy SONN of the Scorpions. According to a source within the
Scorpions, NIA is to blame for the PAGAD violence in the Western Cape,
comprising prominent NIA agents. Even the weapons are supplied by NIA and AIN,
taking then into account that the gangster violence is also linked to NIA, and
the DG for the Western Cape is Dr. Neil BARNARD of EAG. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

Minister for the state President’s office is also a Muslim. Within certain
circles in the Intelligence community, any discussion around Muslim activities
is conducted separately, without any Muslims being present in the room. He is
apparently also one of the Wise Men and is also part of KABAL. The role of
KABAL within the Wise Men must also be taken into consideration together with
the influence that the Extremists can exert. As mentioned before, the
Extremists could well have been behind the assassination attempt. By
neutralising the natural follower RAMAPHOSA, they might have thought that a
person like Essop PAHAD stood a chance of becoming President because of his
position in the SACP. The reason the author doesn't include Jacob ZUMA in the
equation is because too many people still think of him as too uneducated and he
had fallen out of favour within the National Working Committee (NWC).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

between Dullah OMAR and the PAGAD leader during which OMAR warned PAGAD about
police raids while he was still Minister of Justice and Intelligence, were
available. Retired Commissioner Suiker BRITS headed these investigations and is
now working with a private company AIN (Associated Intelligence Network - more
about this organisation in Chapter 4). It is believed that AIN received their
start-up funding from the MOSSAD. It must be taken into account that more bombs
have exploded in the Western Cape, during the last two years, than during the
whole period of the ANC military campaign against apartheid in the Western
Cape. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

have infiltrated almost all-major state departments. NOCSA used so-called
‘apartheid sports’ to strengthen their own position among blacks in South
Africa, but at the end of the day they stabbed the black officials in the back.
It seems to the author that NOCSA’s real agenda, is to cause more division. It
fits in with the Islamic plan. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

some of the other major political parties. Because of the similarity between
them and communism, some of their operations are conducted together, but their
loyalties stay with Islam. In most of the cases the different groups don't know
each other’s true identities or motives. The biggest foreign support comes from
India, Pakistan, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Palestine and Afghanistan. But again to
understand the underlying problem it might be a good idea to ask oneself the
question: "Why is Israel involved in a war with these countries, and why
is the West at "war" with these countries?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>

CSF (SA) is a French Intelligence (OLLIVIER connection) front company, used by
the SHAIK brothers (Mo SHAIK former spy for SAP), to facilitate the deal. The
Afrikaans newspaper, BEELD 19-09-00, confirms what Patricia De LILLE of the PAC

contracts with the arms procurement procedures, and that people had received
bribes. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

projects you will find a Muslim, and in most of the cases you will find the
same people or their families, as with the arms procurement programme, you will
find the SHAIK brothers' names. The politicians, who are supposed to monitor
that these things don't happen, conveniently look the other way because people
at the top, including Thabo MBEKI, had taken monetary bribes. To take the arms
procurement programme as an example again, Joe MODISE, the former Minister of
defence, had received money from British Aerospace (BA); MODISE, in turn had
given money to MBEKI. General Lambert MOLOI (Joe MODISE’s brother-in-law) was instrumental

asked why Lambert MOLOI is also involved in a company, UBAMBU INVESTMENT
HOLDINGS, with OPM/UKUKHULA, a SASS front company. This is how the RDP programmes
are managed. The most important factor is that the so-called re-investment
programmes are mostly given to Muslim controlled companies. Even the Auditor
General in South Africa is a Muslim. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">How

it clear again that this is not an attack on anybody, but questions have to be

confirmed on South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC 2) News on 11
September 2000 that South Africa can become a second Algeria. According to the
Minister, the Islamic Extremists are waging a Jihad (Holy War) against South
Africa and the situation can escalate into a full scale urban terrorist war
(The most disturbing fact is that the EAG, through PAGAD agents, supports this
process. Again the EAG are involved). The author’s contact in the Scorpions had
mentioned that the Muslim Extremists want to turn the Western Cape into a
Muslim state. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

NATIONAL CONGRESS (ANC), CONGRESS OF SOUTH AFRICAN TRADE UNIONS (COSATU) and

because of their support for the ANC never exceeded 50 000, so they were not
many. Senior Intelligence analysers established that most of the so-called
comrades who left the country after the 1976 riots where actually common
criminals. It was from this angle that ANC informers where recruited and others
contaminated before they where recruited as well. Others that were not
susceptible just got mothballed by their peers. If the ANC doesn't get rid of
these people, the country will never survive and secret forces will cleverly manage
the country as they wish and South Africa will become another Africa statistic.<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><o:p></o:p></b></span></p>

regarding the ANC, COSATU and SACP through EAG eyes can be analysed in four
phases. The first phase was for the EAG to determine who the leaders were and
who would become leaders within the ANC and its alliances. The second phase was
to establish whom in the ANC and alliances already were on the payroll of the
four different Intelligence establishments of the South African Government, as
well as International Intelligence agencies’ payrolls. NIS gave a list of all
the ANC spies, during the apartheid era, to PRESIDENT NELSON MANDELA. In other
words the Intelligence structures were aware of the spies.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

of the ANC stalwarts and their alliance leaders were already on the
Intelligence community's payroll - people like Joe MODISE, Dullah OMAR, Jacob
ZUMA, Cyril RAMAPHOSA, Ivan KHOSA, Mo SHAIK, Billy MASETLA, Jeff RADEBE and
Sydney MUFAMADI, to mention a few. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

on the payroll but he could be influenced. Nelson MANDELA didn't want to
appoint Thabo MBEKI; it was a Wise Men choice as his successor, while all of
them knew of Thabo MBEKI 's drug problem. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

Cyril RAMAPHOSA to be his successor. Why would Nelson MANDELA appoint the spies
as senior Ministers when he knew of their treason? The only logical answer to
the author was that he had co-operated with the EAG. Joe NDLANDLA was on the
East German payroll according to self-confessed former spy from East Germany
Rudolf WOLLENHAUPT (department K1,2) and therefore indirectly controllable from
South Africa (see chapter six). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

informers, on the payroll of the Intelligence community, goes far beyond the
few top structure informers. Each town council in South Africa today has at
least one informer in it, working for one of the Intelligence services, and in
some cases each of the Intelligence services has an informer in the same
structure. The point that the author wants to make is that there is no shortage
of informers for the Intelligence services within the ANC/COSATU/SACP alliance.
Now it is just easier because they spy for the ANC, again costing the taxpayer
a lot of money. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

head of COSATU, had already been recruited when he was an activist in
Carltonville (A photo of him having a braai with his handlers in the security
branch is available, and is filed in the archives of the Security branch
Intelligence counter-espionage section). If you understand in which way the
Intelligence services operate, you would understand that they would never allow
a successor to Cyril, who was an informer, to be succeeded by a non-informer.
You can say with almost 100% certainty that Cyril's successors would also be
informers. Tito MBOWENI was Cyril RAMAPHOSA’s successor in COSATU, and a
picture starts emerging that doesn't look good. The picture only becomes clear
when you see that Tito MBOWENI is the new Governor of the South African Reserve
Bank. The EAG for all practical purposes still controls the Reserve Bank. (See
chapter three regarding the role of the Reserve Bank and Chapter five in
regards to MBOWENI drug use.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

Intelligence community started a process where the Civil Co-operation Bureau
(CCB) contaminated prominent leaders through drug activities. It was so
successful that even New Africa Foundation, an ANC economic organ, recieved
major spin-offs from the capital it generated. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">The ANC/SACP/COSATU
alliance also made it very easy for the Intelligence community because of the
policy within the alliance where crime was allowed to generate funds for the
ANC. The crime for money policy become quite active after the 1976 uprisings
when many of the people were actually ordinary criminals who fled the country
and joined the ANC to escape arrest. Military Intelligence especially, had
exploited this turn of events by recruiting these criminals to infiltrate the
ANC. The operation was such a success that they even managed to contaminate some
prominent leaders within most of the SADC countries. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

operations are still active and are exploited by the three secret groups. The
ANC will never be able to stop these activities, unless they get rid of these
criminal elements. Looking at corruption within the government and provincial
structures, which, for all practical purposes, is committed by ANC members, the
reader will get a better understanding of the problem that South Africa is
facing, and is presently much more dangerous than any other given time in the
South African history. The reason for saying this is because presently a
culture of corruption has been created that will stay with South Africa for a
very long time. This exacerbates the problem in that there aren’t many real alternatives
for South Africans, seen from a political perspective.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

that Thabo MBEKI was locked up in LUANDA in ANGOLA on drug charges in 1983.
People that have been contaminated through drugs are Thabo MBEKI, Mathews PHOSA
(confirmed MI informer), Tokyo SEXWALE and Cyril RAMAPHOSA (confirmed Security
police informer) to mention a few. Even the chairman of the South African bid
committee for the 2006 World cup soccer Ivan KHOSA (confirmed MI informer) is
presently still involved with drugs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

operations. NICO SCEAVER contaminated JEFF RADEBE, a confirmed informer. When
SCEAVER was in jail he met RADEBE and they became friends, SCEAVER was
apparently recruited by Craig WILLIAMS, and apparently involved in the ESCOBAR
operation/assassination together with the CIA.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

some top business people within the ANC were contaminated. The SAPS Organised
Crime Unit had 80 hours of video material on S.K.MASHELE. He thought he was
working for British Intelligence MI6. One of the companies that had been used
to launder drug money was KILIMANJARO INVESTMENTS and the directors are:
Richard MAPONYA, Ivan KHOSA, Gibson THULA, adv. T.L.SKOYIYA, DR P.J.A.
MTHAFUDI, L.J. MTHAFUDI and C.L. COBUS. KILIMANJARO was established to get
shares in Coca-Cola, according to Richard MAPONYA. According to a source
several people had been approached, including Desmond TUTU and Allan BOESAK to
join KILIMANJARO and in return they had each received $25 000. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

purposes the idea was to contaminate the involved parties. Ivan KHOSA is now
one of the 27 syndicate leaders that the police are investigating. Gibson THULA
was a former IFP member and then married into an ANC family and subsequently
also joined the ANC. The author would be surprised if this isn't just another
Intelligence operation by the EAG. Gibson is now head of the South African
Diamond Board. Strategically it is a very important position for the EAG if one
is involved in big diamond smuggling, for instance with an old ally, UNITA.
Taking into account that Victor BOET, a RUSSIAN pilot, and apparently also

become the next President, but he was too radical for the National Party and
knew too much about the contaminated group, so the EAG with the knowledge of
MBEKI, eliminated HANI. According to latest information the command to
assassinate HANI came from Tito MALEKA, head of security at Shell House and
close confidant of Thabo MBEKI. Nelson MANDELA also knew of the assassination,
according to a member of the family of a former secretary of President MANDELA.
This can also be one of the reasons why Thabo MBEKI is so scared of an
assassination attempt, because he knows how easily it can be arranged.
Commissioner RADU was also killed and Commissioner Suiker BRITS wanted to
re-open the investigation, taking into consideration that MUFAMADI was the driving
force behind RADU? It never happened and Suiker BRITS got a major package from
AIN (See chapter four). <o:p></o:p></span></p>

utilised by the EAG, with their informers strategically placed, to start a
destabilising process that can go on naturally during the next era of Thabo
MBEKI. Nelson MANDELA is fully aware of this situation, and one of the
criticisms from an Intelligence point of view was that he couldn't keep a
secret. He confronted Thabo MBEKI with the facts, and Thabo convinced Nelson that
he was innocent. Nelson believed Thabo and as they say, the rest is history. It
was, and still is very easy to convince Nelson. The Intelligence services were
very successful in alienating his family from him. It is interesting to note
the difference Nelson MANDELA is making to the Mozambican economy. Is Graca
MACHEL really interested in Nelson MANDELA or is she using him to promote her
own agenda? Is Graca MACHEL an agent for the MOZAMBICAN Intelligence?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

process on behalf of the EAG after the Nelson MANDELA era. MBEKI, because of
his drug use was and is controllable. MBEKI is very active in the process of
destroying the alliance. Secretly leaked information on people who are not
performing within government cause confidence levels, as well as loyalty to
drop. Already within media of June 2000, people started speculating about when
the split was going to happen within the alliance. There is wide acceptance
that COSATU, and perhaps the SACP, want to form a new party to the left of the ANC.
The SACP know that they will never be a factor as a political party because
they do not have the support of the masses. However, to indicate just how weak
the ANC leadership is, all major positions within the ANC are held by SACP
members that indicates the extent of SACP manipulation. To illustrate how big a
parasite the SACP is, you have to look at the present policy of the ANC and
it's alliances. It doesn't even come close to official SACP policy, considering
that the Wise Men form part of the SACP strategy.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

are from the National Party. One of the most bizarre pieces of National Party
politics would be to understand how Pik BOTHA managed to stay in the party, let
alone in government, while most of the people within government knew he was

director CASEY, CASEY had told GROENEWALD that never in his life had he met a
person more morally corrupt than Pik BOTHA, and within five minutes what Pik
knew, the CIA and the KGB knew. He masterminded the downfall of PW BOTHA. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

South Africans into a specific political direction? Whatever the answer, they

contradictory; because the author has just mentioned that the Intelligence

would have been able to intervene militarily if the negotiations had gone sour.
It again sounds contradictory to the reader, for if the negotiations hadn't
worked, the NP could have used their own power and intervened, as they would
have had the Defence Force behind them. However, internationally the NP
wouldn't have survived if they had done so themselves, so they needed someone
else to blame hence the reason why the Freedom Front was created. So if
military intervention would have been necessary, they could have used the
Freedom Front as a scapegoat and blame it on the right-wing elements in the

aspect of the economic side of the plan for the EAG was to create a way of
getting into the inner circles of the International Bank Debenture trading. The
plans consist of various phases, starting with stockpiling huge quantities of
gold and platinum (See Chapter Five). The amount of gold and platinum that was
taken out of the country illegally is about two thousand metric tons of gold and
two thousand metric tons of platinum. With this much bullion in foreign banks,
it didn't take too much convincing for the different central banks and top 100
banks to allow the owners of this bullion into the inner circle. The bullion
was used as collateral in high yield programs also known as Capital Enhancement
Programs and/or Rolling Programs (See International Bank Debenture trading).
The total amount generated was sixteen trillion US dollars according to a
former agent of Directorate of Covert Information. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

world countries’ governments were actively involved in the high yield programs,
including Allan GREENSPAN of the Federal Reserve, according to TOERIEN, who
personally liased with GREENSPAN. TOERIEN was assisted by one of Switzerland’s
top spies Jurg JACOMED. Other central banks that were involved were the Bank of
England, the Bundesbank, Royal Bank of Canada. Other major banks that were
involved include Bank of Tokyo, Deutsche Bank, Bank Pariba, Union Bank of
Switzerland, Credit Swiss, Natwest and City Bank. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

to the early days of "banking" when private wealthy individuals used
their capital to support various trade-orientated ventures. Promissory Notes,
Bills of Exchange, Bankers' Acceptances and Letters of Credit have all been a
part of daily "banking" business for many years.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

issued on a daily basis. These are Documentary Letters of Credit, Standby
Letters of Credit and Unconditional Letters of Credit or Surety Guarantees.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

takes place when a bank customer (Buyer) wishes to buy or acquire goods or
services from a third party (Seller). The Buyer will cause his bank to issue a
Letter of Credit that "guarantees" payment to the Seller via the
Seller's bank, conditional against certain documentary requirements. In other
words, when the Seller via his bank represents certain documents to the Buyer's
bank the payment will be made. These documentary requirements vary from
transaction to transaction; however, the normal documents will usually comprise
of:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the goods were "sold" and are "en route" to the Buyer. The
Buyer is secure in the knowledge that he has "bought" the items or
services and the Seller is secure in the fact that the Letter of Credit, which
was delivered to him prior to the loading release of the goods, will
"guarantee" payment if he complies with the terms as stated in the
Letter of Credit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

throughout the world, in every jurisdiction and without any fear that the
issuing bank would not "honour" its obligation, providing that the
bank is of an acceptable stature.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

recognised by the Bank for International Settlements (B.I.S.) and the
International Chamber of Commerce (I.C.C.), and is subject to the uniform rules
of collection for documentary credits (ICC400, 1983).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Documentary Letter of Credit ("DLC") and is always trade or
transaction-related, with an underlying sale of goods or services between the
applicant (Buyer) and the beneficiary (Seller).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Credit, a number of institutions began to issue Standby Letters of Credit
("SLC"). These credit instruments were effectively a surety or
guarantee that if the applicant (Buyer) failed to pay or perform under the
terms of a transaction, the bank would take over the liability and pay the
beneficiary (Seller).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

regulation from providing formal guarantees and instead offer these instruments
as a functional equivalent of a guarantee.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

irrevocable obligation in the form of a Letter of Credit issued by a bank on
behalf of its customer. If the bank's customer is unable to meet the terms and
conditions of its contractual agreement with a third party, the issuing bank is
obligated to pay the third party (as stipulated in the terms of the CSLC) on
behalf of its customer. A CSLC can be primary (direct draw on the Bank)<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> </b>or secondary (available in the event
of default by the customer to pay the underlying obligation).

contingent liabilities based upon the potential formal default of the

bank's accounting principles.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

in the market place as a "3039" format. This number is not found as a
specific ICC400 (1983) reference and is purported to be a federal court docket
reference number, which is related to a lawsuit involving such instrument.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

used, the banks, and their customers began to see the profitable situation
created by the "off balance sheet" positioning of the instruments. In
real terms the holding of the Standby Letter of Credit was attributed to a
"contingent" liability and, as such, was held off the balance sheet,
therefore in an unregulated area.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

regulatory bodies and government control, the use of these "off balance
sheet" items as financial tools to effectively adjust the capital asset
ratios of the banks, was seen to be a prudent and profitable method of staying
within the regulations and yet to achieve the needed capital position.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

international commercial and investment banks that are most active in the
market for the main new financial instruments. The purposes were both to
improve central-bank knowledge of those instruments an</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">d</span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"> their markets as the situation
existed in the second half of 1985, and to provide a foundation for considering
their implications for the stability and functioning of international financial
institutions and markets, for monetary policy, and for bank's financial
reporting and statistical reporting of international financial developments.
Alongside this work the Basle Supervisor's Committee has undertaken a study of
the report of the prudential aspects of banking innovations and a report on the
management of bank's off-balance-sheet exposures and their supervisory
implications was published by that Committee in March 1986.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

off-balance-sheet business because of constraints imposed on their balance
sheets, notably regulatory pressure to improve capital rations, and because
they offer a way to improve the rate of return earned on assets.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

to hedge interest rate risk without inflating balance sheets, as would occur
with the use of the inter-bank market.

the operation, it is necessary to look at the way in which a bank usually
operates. The bank credit rating and status within society is judged by the
"size" of the bank and its capital/asset ratio. The bank lists its
real assets and its cash position, including deposits, securities, etc.,
against its loans, debits and other liabilities showing a ratio of liquidity.
Each jurisdiction of the World banking system has different minimum capital
adequacy requirements and, depending on the status of the individual bank, the
ratio over assets, in which the bank can effectively trade, can be as high as
twenty times the minimum capital requirement.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the bank can lend or obligate at least $1,000 to other clients or institutions
against the cash at hand.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

dealt with in a different manner to the actual cash reserves or assets of the
bank.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

application of these points to the matter of the question, we will now make the
following overview:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

client is willing to "buy" from the bank a one-year obligation zero
coupon, and effectively unsecured by any of the physical assets of the bank,
the credit instrument is based solely on the "full faith and
creditworthiness of the bank".<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

one that is acceptable in a jurisdiction and freely transferable, able to be
settled at maturity in simple terms and is without restrictions other than its
maturity conditions. The instrument, which immediately comes to mind, is the
Documentary Letter of Credit or Standby Letter of Credit. However, as the issue
is not trade or transaction related, most of the terms and conditions do not
apply. The simple "London Short Form" version of the Standby Letter
of Credit is perfect. The text is specific and does not contain any
restrictions except the time when the credit is validated and can be presented
for payment. It is in real terms a time payment instrument due on or after one
year and one day from the date of issue, usually valid for a period of fifteen
days from date of maturity.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

for the simple or first demand guaranty. In practice, the Standby Letter of
Credit function almost identically to the first demand guarantee. Under both,
the beneficiary's claim is made payable on demand and without independent
evidence of its validity. The two devices are both security devices issued in
transactions not directly involving the sale of goods, and they create the same
type of problems.

of the bank valued at say two cents, is now "issued" and the text
added in say "ten million U.S. Dollars face value", signed and sealed
by the authorised bank officers. The question now is: "what is the piece
of paper worth?" Is it worth two cents or US$ ten million, bearing in mind
that it is completely unsecured by any tangible or real asset? In reality it
has a "perceived value of US$10 million" in 366 days' time, based
upon the "full faith and credit of the bank".<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

the bank honour its obligation when the bank note of credit is presented"?
This will, of course, depend upon the reputation and credit worthiness of the
issuer.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

"value" is US$10 million in 366 days' time, the "Buzzer"
must negotiate a price, or discount, which is acceptable to the Bank to cause
it to "sell" the credit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

accounting ramifications of the sale. The liability is US$10 million payable
"next year", and it is important to note that the reason for the one
year and one day period is to take the liability into the next financial year,
no matter when the credit is issued. The liability is held "off
balance" sheet and is technically a contingent liability, as it is not based
upon any asset. On the other side of the model, the bank is to receive cash
from the "sale of an asset" and the cash is classified as capital
assets, which in turn are subject to the ratio multiplier of say ten times.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

80% of the face value upon sale which is US$80 million cash on hand against a
forward liability of US$10 million in one year and one day's time, the actual
contingent liability being US$2 million. The cash received, US$8 million allows
the bank to lend ten times this amount under the capital adequacy rules, so
US$80 million is able to lend on balance sheet against normal securities such
as real estate, etc. If the interest rate is say 8% simple and the loans
(without taking into account the principle sums loaned) from interest alone is
equal to </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">US</span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">$6,400,000.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

against the cash on hand and the interest received; in other words, US$8
million plus US$6,400,000 which total US$14,400,000 less the US$10 million
shows a gross profit of US$4,400,000 or 44% plus the full value of the loan
amounts (principle).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

resultant yield is well over the given discount and the bank is in a profitable
position without risk. They have achieved a greater asset yield than by any
conventional means.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

indicated if an overview of the complete supply system is taken. To understand
the system one must take a view, which is not supported by any physical
evidence, but is indicated by actual occurrences of events.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

a specific period shows a need to print, say US$100 million of new issue
currency, and the US Treasury is required to issue some, the impact of the
release of those "new" dollars in terms of inflation and market
effect is quite strong.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

Reserve Bank was asked to forward "sell" those Dollars for
"cash," the amount of "new" Dollars today is reduced by
whatever amount is being yielded. If we take the case in question, suppose the
Federal Reserve Bank had "contracted" with a major world bank to
"issue" Dollar denominated one year of entities so that the "sale"
did not appear "on market" and that the "sale" was at a
discount of say 80% of face value. The cash yield back to the US Treasury would
be US$80 million against a Dollar credit of same amount to the issuing bank,
with the bank taking a US$100 million liability position at maturity date.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

back in from the market/system and need only print US$20 MILLION to meet its
current obligation to the money supply. This is 20% of the original amount and,
as such, its impact on the system is greatly reduced. Of course, if the amount
sold is greater than the money supply requirement, the US Treasury has a
reduction, which allows lower interest rates to be maintained and/or
controlled.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

taken on the liability - not the US Government. The Dollar credit is classed as
"cash" for the purpose of capital adequacy and is not required to be
physically "printed" as such. A simple ledger entry is sufficient.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

instruments is controlled by simple supply and demand techniques, and all US

the UST and the top 100 world banks, excluding state operated banks, American
banks (with the exception of Morgan Guaranty), Third World banks and any other
banks that may have a capital/credit problem. The current list (based upon the

issue, on behalf, a specific amount of US Dollar denominated paper or the
alternative applies where the Federal Reserve Bank allocates a specific amount
to each bank. The details are not published and no physical evidence has been
available to the author. In any case, the result is that a specific volume is
available and the Federal Reserve Bank is now able to release it on demand.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

together to give the total position each year, and it is from the "Federal
Pool" that the supply contracts are issued. The existence of the
"Federal Pool" is not confirmed. However, various documents,
including GNMA transfer documents, contain a "Pool Number".<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

one hears about, are effectively issued by the "Federal Pool". It is
indicated that these are usually issued in US$500 million units, with each
minimum denomination being US$100 million. In other words, the minimum order is
US$500 million contracts. From our research, it has been indicated that the
"cost" or deposit for one of these contracts is US$100 million cash.
This obviously reduces the number of entities who are able to participate.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

although the market places and issue of these instruments is
"unregulated", the banks are effectively controlled by the B.I.S. and
self-imposed rules. Otherwise the whole system would be subject to possible
manipulation and abuse by a bank, entering into a form of "insider
trading." This would be detrimental to the system and the long-term effect
of some.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

master collateral contracts" are commonly referred to as "cutting
houses", as they usually reduce the size of the denomination from US$100
million to as little as US$10 million. They in fact "cut down the size of
the note" hence "cutting house".<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

delivery commitments to wholesale brokers, the cost of such is indicated at
approximately US$10 million cash.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

called upon if an order is not met or paid on time, and if called for the
contract, holder would lose his contract and would be "blacklisted"
in the system to prevent any new contract position. The rules are very simple;
cash payment at all times for all notes ordered. This is a cash-driven
industry, not credit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

would normally issue say 50 delivery commitments or "sub master
commitments" at US$2,5 million each. Therefore, their deposit of US$100
million is now covered, plus a reserve of US$25 million. This is very similar
to the normal activities of post betting where the odds are "laid
off" to restrict exposure.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

volume of instruments to the clients or customers who are at the retail
distribution level and, subsequently, to the secondary market.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

manufacturers of this product; in this case the product is bank paper. The
Federal Reserve Bank can be identified as the importer (80%). The Federal Pool
can be identified as the storage depot (82,5%) for the entire product prior to
sale and are responsible for the bulk release to the regional distributors. The
cutting houses can be identified as the regional distributors (85%) and are
responsible for the release of units to the local distributor. The wholesale
brokers can be identified as the local wholesaler (87,5%) who releases units on
demand to the retail showrooms. The primary clients can be identified as the
retail showroom (89%) that delivers the units to the public buzzers. The public
buzzer exists in the secondary market (92-94%), such as pension funds, Middle
East (Muslim) clients' banks (to buzz on the secondary market is not classed as
contrary to the rule). They hold the instruments until maturity and gain the
preferred yield from the discount against the face value (100%) from the
issuing banks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

this matter is the contradictory and somewhat unusual attitude of the banks
when any attempt is made to obtain any definite documents or undertakings. Bank
officials have denied the very existence of these instruments, at senior level,
and yet, within the same bank, requests to purchase said instruments have been
received by the author.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">"In smaller markets only Governments are allowed to

regulatory position of these instruments creates a major problem for any
regulated entity to participate. How can a regulated body handle an unregulated
item!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

information available that the main reason for most of the mystery and
misinformation is quite simple. This is a sophisticated form of financial
'engineering.' It makes normal accounting principles a complete mockery and
basically exposes the banking system for what it is.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

that no one really understands; we based our daily life on a "paper
house". Nothing has really changed since the very first "money"
transactions or even earlier, "I'll swap you two blue shells for three red
shells and I'll give you three red shells for your XYZ goods". The whole
monetary system is based on "perceived value" including currencies,
credit, and day-to-day life.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

reality an unsecured "Promissory Note" payable on demand. Its face
value is its perceived value. However, if the word demand were changed to
future date, of say one year and one day, the perceived value has now been
reduced to cover the "cost of money" for the period.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

fifty-pound note, the "value" today would be approximately forty-five
pound. However, if we wished to "discount the present value," several
million of these notes, it is reasonable to expect that the
"wholesale" buzzer would expect a better "price". The note,
however, still has a "perceived value" of fifty pounds and a present
value of approximately forty five-pound.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

operation of business; mostly it is in the form of ledger or "paper"
entries. Even when a private bank account is used, over and above all
transactions are "paper" driven not cash? A cheque is a
"Promissory Note", either unsecured or guaranteed by the bank up to a
certain limit (cheque guarantee card). If a bank draft is "purchased"
the draft is still unsecured but is perceived to be a 100% guarantee of
payment.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

"electronic banking" is an indication of the future and is based
purely upon the amount of business, which takes place daily. The banks can no
longer cope with physical "paper" and need to reduce each transaction
to a simple ledger entry. The end result is less "money" and more
"business".<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

short-term investment is obvious, if one takes the differential between the
"invoice" price and the "present value" and moves a client
into and out of the instruments on a regular basis, the effective yield is
substantial</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">.</span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

protocol over the potential purchases, with a worse case scenario of the fact
that the client would either not transact or therefore not be at risk. If an
instrument had been purchased and for whatever reason could not be onwards
"sold or discounted", the client would automatically achieve a
substantial yield based on the maturity value against the "invoice
paper".<o:p></o:p></span></p>

types of transactions, tend to be very restrictive with regard to assisting
clients.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

are involved in the discounting of their own Bank Debenture Instruments and
obviously do not appreciate individuals transacting in this field.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

commence the construction of a hotel.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

project to be viable, and the borrower had in the past a good track record with
the funding institute, it was relatively easy to secure the required loan, not forgetting
the project and possibly other assets had to be placed with the lending bank as
collateral.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

institutes, banks, trusts, have adopted the attitude that only clients who can
provide a very attractive project along with some form of bank Guarantee, would
then be eligible for a loan.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

example: Whatever conditional-funding instrument is confirmed to the Fiduciary
bank, the Fiduciary bank issues the identical Funding Instrument to the
collateral issuing bank. So the Fiduciary bank performs all movements on a
simultaneous basis. The cost of the bank Guarantee for this operation is: 73%
of loan amount.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

apparently a known gathering point of the EAG, which is also the reason for NIA
to monitor "DIE WERF". According to some informed people in the case
against LOTTER, it was mentioned that he would get off. They also mentioned
that high profile ANC members were involved, including Cyril RAMAPHOSA, Tokyo SEXWALE
and Thabo MBEKI. It is interesting that with the recent arrest of Ivan KHOSA,

MANUAL publicly said that they don't understand what is happening with the

on the economy is that some of the major black empowerment groups in South
Africa receive their money/start-up capital from the EAG. In most cases the
persons don't even know where the money is coming from, as in the case of
NAZALA INVESTMENTS.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

of the South African Reserve Bank), Magnus MALAN (Former Minister of Defence),
Barend du PLESSIS (Former Minister of Finance) and Danie CRONJE (Chairman of
ABSA) were directly involved with the high yield programs for the EAG,
according to Rudi TOERIEN and Col. Dr. Pieter JOUBERT. Both had worked for MI.
According to TOERIEN there were various occasions where Magnus and Barend had
joined him and Jurg JACOMED regarding SUNROCK. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

regarding the existence of Jurg JACOMED is that when the author told SASS about
JACOMED, they said that there is no person such as JACOMED. In his own
handwriting TOERIEN gave the author the particulars on JACOMED together with
certain ODESA transaction codes.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

involvement of TOERIEN in the DOMA Church. Together with TOERIEN within the
Church were Jaques JOUBERT, Gert van ROOYEN and Charles NEWMAN. Jaques JOUBERT
and Charles NEWMAN were actively involved with diamond smuggling together with
Shai AVISAR (Israeli Mafia), Jerry MEENTZ, Johan ERICKSON (Directly involved
with Pik BOTHA and Magnus MALAN in the Erickson’s Diamond House), Brian GOODCAM
and Jeffrey RIECHMAN.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

also told the author that TOERIEN had meetings with Barend DU PLESSIS regarding
SUNROCK. A source who is currently (2000) working for SASS in a covert
operation in the ADLER group, also confirmed above-mentioned people’s
involvement with SUNROCK. Rudolf WOLLENHAUPT had shown the full SUNROCK file to
Dirk KRUGER. The author knows WOLLENHAUPT personally and WOLLENHAUPT had shown
documents regarding the involvement of BROWN (Director at ABSA) with a front
company, "Goldfinger," operating out of BEIRA, Mozambique. It is also
important to mention that WOLLENHAUPT told the author that he (WOLLENHAUPT) had
received his documentation from Braam ASSIENG, a former VIP personal assistant
at NEDBANK, Fox Street.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">There are two reasons
for the significance of this statement by WOLLENHAUPT. Firstly SUNROCK had its
origins at NEDBANK, Fox Street. Secondly, the author in turn had mentioned the
name to Luci FIKASECO, Executive Director of CIEX, who in turn mentioned then
to the author that NQUCA had approached CIEX to trace Braam ASSIENG. CIEX is
being used extensively by the South African Intelligence Services on economic
investigations. CIEX Managing Director is Michael OATLEY, the former 2ic of MI6
in Britain, and was co-opted personally by President Thabo MBEKI. CIEX had
managed to win blinding trust from the Intelligence community and had
financially taken the Intelligence services on various occasions for a ride.
CIEX had bought 11 D.I.R.T. software programs from an American company for $2
MILLION each while it was possible to get the same programs in South Africa for
about R200 000.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

also tried through the disgraced SPECIAL PROJECTS UNIT (SPU) that was set up by
Thabo MBEKI, to "uncover" the funds. There is strong evidence that
the SPU was only established to uncover and neutralise the leaks. The SPU
however had to produce authentic documentation on the subjects to justify
themselves. One of the members, Peter GOSSLER, was one of the major players in
SUNROCK according to TOERIEN. The information that was generated through SPU
was quite accurate and confirmed the author’s stance on the EAG and the
economic plan. The problem with SPU was that they had access to all
Intelligence reports and they knew where information was coming from regarding
SUNROCK and ODESA. After SPU established the targets to neutralise the leaks,
SPU became "corrupt" and the investigation was closed down and the
economic plan of the EAG was branded as bullshit. In this process TOERIEN
became discredited as well. The targets were branded as unreliable criminals;
however, none of the targets ever got locked up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

reports on FW DE KLERK’s involvement in the financial destabilisation actions.
The SPU made use of a Greek contact that apparently informed them on the EAG
activities and the role of the South African Protégés and Greek communities,
including the transfer of large amounts of money to Greece and Portugal (</span><!--[if supportFields]><span

manipulating inflation-, growth- and other economic- figures to create an
impression that the South African economy is sound and well. This is done to
protect the Government and the alliance. If the true figures were known they
won’t stay in power.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the EAG plan was the most important. You can describe it as the brain behind
the EAG plan. It is important to mention that methodologically there is not
much difference in the approach of the three secret groups. The EAG was able to
arrange that NIA and SASS Director Generals SEGHASE and MASETLA, both former
spies, be appointed. Their Minister during the MANDELA era, Dullah OMAR, was
also a former spy and is still working for his former controllers, now just in
the form of the EAG. Their current Minister, Joe NDLANDLA, had worked for the
East German Intelligence. The South Africans could never recruit him directly.
MASETLA of SASS worked for the CIA as well, after his appointment. His handler,
PRICE of the CIA had a permanent address close to McDonalds, close to the N4
off ramp in Pretoria, were they met at least twice a week. (KIPP the co-handler
was present when Alex KOVARIS handed cocaine to Thabo MBEKI at their safe house
in Rosebank and helped arrange small boys for Cyril RAMAPHOSA at another safe
house, also in Rosebank). John KIPP of the CIA was also present and also had
contact with Tienie GROENEWALD. According to GROENEWALD, he had seen KIPP the
last time just before he went to parliament.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

in the formal structures, as well as former operatives working in an informal
structure. Each of the four Intelligence structures has primary and secondary
roles. It's important to mention that this is not an official policy of the
Intelligence groups, but EAG policy with their people within the structures.
The Wise Men and Islamic Extremist both make use of the same strategy but with
different role players. The author concentrated mainly on the EAG.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

was responsible for the high-yield programs, the smuggling of gold and
platinum, and the implementation of the drug contamination project. They also
recruited criminals to run their destabilising process (Ferdi BARNARD in TRC
hearing on 02- 10- 2000). For example: Mathews PHOSA was an informer for R1 600
a month and was investigated by NIA for his role in the drug route from Maputo
in Moçambique that is also linked to Alex KOUVARIS, a known agent for the CCB.
It is also confirmed on 10-11-2000 by the author that the CCB is still active,
but working for the EAG. A deep-cover SASS agent gave this information to the
author.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Mbeki, the then Vice-President, established the Special Projects Unit. Within
three months R3 million was stolen (sources inside mentioned the real amount as
being R30 million) and the unit was closed. The unit came under investigation
by Johan ALBERTS regarding the disappearance of the money (He also
"investigated" the SMIT murders and "red mercury"). All of
a sudden Johan ALBERTS is also now appointed as a director at NIA, and the
information that the unit was investigating doesn't exist, and all
investigations regarding the EAG are stopped. STANDER was suspended, but
subsequently re-instated. KUBU, who was under Joe NDLANDLA’s command who was

investigate their activities. However the author had meetings a few months
before it was established with Mathews PHOSA and Riaan STANDER the day before
they had met with Jacob ZUMA. It was at this meeting that Mathews PHOSA
confirmed to the author that he was working with Riaan STANDER since 1992.
Taking into consideration that Riaan STANDER was involved with Craig WILLIAMS
on project Long Reach, the situation became very sinister. Also very sinister are
the appointments of former Intelligence and Police officials - in many cases,
officials with close links to the EAG. Police officials also reported
widespread corruption within the Scorpions’ ranks where Scorpions officials pay
police officials to give the Scorpions cases that have already been
investigated by the police, and the Scorpions then just make the arrests and
receive the credit.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

services are more active in South Africa than ever before. The reason for this
is that most foreign countries perceive South Africa to be the gateway to
Africa. Another important consideration is the fact that if Southern African
countries’ debts are going to be written off, Southern Africa, for all
practical purposes becomes the richest region in the world. Take into
consideration that this region, mineral-wise, is one of the richest regions in
the world. So without any debt it won't just become a global player; Southern
Africa can become the leader in the New World Order.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

is the fact that in the modern espionage world, business has become the norm as
a front. These business people are flashy and move in the right circles, so to
arrest them becomes almost impossible. Also one of the modern spy’s tasks is to
ensure economic advantages for their own countries. A practical example is the
now much controversial arms procurement transaction, and the French spies’

operative who has contact with Gen. Tienie GROENEWALD and Thabo MBEKI when
MBEKI received drugs from Alex KOUVARIS. Because Intelligence operatives use
different names, it is difficult to know what their real names are and with
whom else they had contact. However, It is confirmed that they do exist. The
CIA is very active in Ruanda, causing nervousness, especially in the DRC. The
author confirmed that the CIA has contact with the EAG as well as the IFP. The source
in the EAG told the author that there is an exchange of information between
them and the CIA.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

high-placed source in the EAG, CIEX is an MI6 front. Their legend as a foremost
"private" company that specialises in economic investigations, gives
them a perfect excuse to gather any information in this region and also help to
establish access.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Through CIEX, MI6 has
direct access to MBEKI. It is important to note that until the ANC had been
banned, MBEKI was a SACP member in Britian. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

for MI6 to have an interest in MBEKI during his time in exile and even more
logical to continue their interest now that he is President (British
Aerospace’s £2 million payment into Vuwani Projects). The EAG also have close
links with MI6 according to a source within the EAG and again information is

Service is one of the most active in the region, if not the most. Their network
in SADC is not very big in terms of numbers but they make extensive use of the
super-spy structure whereby they have at least two very high profile persons in
every country that have contact with most of the influential people. In South
Africa two of the people that have been identified by the author are Alain GUENON,
who was the French Intelligence contact who liased with the South African DCI
operative Wietzke Van Wyk De VRIES during the apartheid years. It seems that
the South African Intelligence has a hold on OLLIVIER because of his homosexual
orientation. It was also confirmed that Dominique NASPLEZES, the partner of
Jean-Ives OLLIVIER, does work for MI. Jean-Ives OLLIVIER is the international
link; he reports back directly to the head of French Intelligence and the
President, and he co-ordinates internationally.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

OLLIVIER have contact with, include RSA (But secretly opposes MBEKI), DRC, (But

one of the author’s sources to help him get rid of Thabo MBEKI. During December
1998 OLLIVIER approached the source. Apparently OLLIVIER had told the source
that French speaking African countries want to get rid of Thabo MBEKI. OLLIVIER
admitted to the author that they know about MBEKI's drug problem and they were
aware that MBEKI's imprisonment in Angola was for a drug-related offence.
Noseweek of June 2001, made mention of MBEKI’s imprisonment, but stopped short
of giving the reason, which was drug related.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

worked on various projects with the apartheid government and OLLIVIER was the

also makes use of the super-spy structure, but it varies slightly from the
French model. When the head of the BND visited South Africa a couple of years
ago, the BND head visited almost all the major German companies during his
visit. The German's have various business and professional people in South
Africa and they report directly to the Minister's office in Germany, with one
person in this region verifying the information. The number in Germany that
these people phone is 094 9173 527 9103; this was confirmed by NIA’s
Counter-espionage department. One of the persons using this number is
Christiaan MEYER, who is also involved with the ADLER group. Deon MUNSTERMAN
was the controller in Germany. An agent from Germany working out of an
international front company with well-established contacts in Intelligence,
through whom the author had met the person mentioned, said major concerns for
the German government was the disappearance of 72 tactical nuclear warheads. A
senior politician within the ANC confirmed that the ANC is aware of this and
they are concentrating their efforts in Mpumalanga, as Mpumalanga is
geographically the most likely place where these warheads are hidden.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

GOLDBLATT was apparently one of the contact men. It has also been mentioned
that the timing devices for the bombs in the Western Cape was bought by AIN and
then supplied to PAGAD. Apparently the link is that MOSSAD had established
HIZBOLLAH as a counter to HAMASS, and then through HIZBOLLAH infiltrated PAGAD
with the purpose of forcing the South African government to neutralise any
Muslim Extremists and then of course giving MOSSAD another angle to infiltrate

$90 000 p/m from SASS as a front project. The directors of OPM on January 7
were Andre OOSTHUIZEN (Former national head of the Police Security Branch
Intelligence section, and also the person who advised the destroying of the

Michael OATLEY, a former 2ic of MI6. Because MBEKI was a former exile in the UK
it is suspect why MBEKI puts so much trust in CIEX. CIEX has been trusted with
some of the most sensitive and Top Secret information of South Africa. It would
be ridiculous to think that the information would not end up with MI6.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

used his official position as President, instructing the South African

to be careful to whom he speaks. Another example was when MBEKI, at a media
conference, showed an organogram regarding the weapons deal. MBEKI told the
media that he had received the organogram from the Intelligence services and a
couple of days later WELZ confirmed in the media that he had drawn the
organogram. It is also a well-known fact that Luci receives approximately
R1-million a month from different state departments to do so-called

that the ANC is still actively using their old Intelligence structure DIS as a
type of alternative for the formal Intelligence structures, and in the process
exchanging information, leading again to a situation where the formal
Intelligence structures become completely ineffective. If any other political
party would dare attempt to launch a similar structure, the ANC would have
cried ‘foul’ about that. This arrogance creates a precedent that can lead to
other political parties or groupings doing the same. In the right hands
Intelligence is more powerful than physical war. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

French Intelligence operatives leading again to an Intelligence breach. It is
also reported that he is one of Thabo MBEKI’s few confidants. Tito MALEKA
reportedly also makes frequent visits to one of the suspected EAG front
companies’ Northern Hemisphere. One of the people working at Northern
Hemisphere mentioned that they do have a very good relationship with Tito
MALEKA. The person also confirmed that they know exactly what is going on in
Thabo MBEKI'S office. This also confirms the author’s stance on the link

LEBONE was also a front company for SASS. Before Piet LE GRANGE was with OPM,
he was one of the founding members of LEBONE. LEBONE has embezzled more than
R10 million from various victims, some of them International donors. Someone
else who worked at LEBONE was Fanie HATTINGH, who worked as a cover agent for
NIS and was described as very proficient in recruiting ANC members under a
false flag. Another director of LEBONE was Professor SONO who is now a
Democratic Alliance member, and who supplied some information on the SHAIKS'
involvement in the arms procurement deal to the Mail and Guardian.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

SCEAVER, a former GERMAN that apparently operated closely with Craig WILLIAMS
in the assassination of ESCOBAR, is also now actively involved with Jeff RADEBE
in destabilising the RSA government RDP housing project. Nico SCEAVER (Jewish)
is the name he is using now, his real surname being ANDERS (German). He was
born in Africa and moved with his parents to South America while still in his
teens. He became a very close friend with ESCOBAR while in school. After school
he laundered money for ESCOBAR through oil deals (indications are that he also
helped South Africa with sanctions busting), apparently he then lost all his
money on a deal that went sour. He then went to Israel and worked on the
Kibbutz where he adopted the Jewish faith and also changed his surname to
SCEAVER. He then came to South Africa where he had a shop in the CBD of
Johannesburg. He got involved in a deal with Volkskas Bank and swindled about
R300 million out of them. He was then jailed and met Jeff RADEBE in jail where
they become friends. The money was never recovered.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

with Mark WILLIAMS with an airline company that was co-owned by SCEAVER. The
same airline was linked with arms smuggling according to the author’s source in
Air Force Intelligence. At that stage Mark was paying WOLLENHAUPT a salary and
WOLLENHAUPT’s confidant was Piet LE GRANGE of OPM. Shortly after WOLLENHAUPT
had broken his ties with Mark, WOLLENHAUPT got involved with Sydney MUFAMADI,
Gunther POLTZL and Wolfgang BAUER in EXXON.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

projects that Jeff RADEBE is responsible for, it is reported by sources of the
author that RADEBE, together with SCEAVER, are involved in a scheme where
property of the state, that is been privatised by RADEBE’s department, is
bought by SCEAVER below cost and then sold by SCEAVER at a profit. The profit
is then shared between them. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

the forefront in the clash between COSATU and Government over privatisation.
RADEBE is well supported by MBEKI from the Government side. The purpose of this
clash is to try and brake up the alliance. Taken into consideration that RADEBE
is a former spy and MBEKI contaminated through his drug activities both being
manipulated by the EAG on the Government side and the leadership of COSATU most
probably also EAG manipulated the net result is obvious to destroy the
alliance. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

the same can apply to Health, Education, Police, Correctional Services,
Defence, Provincial Affairs, Intelligence, Labour, Agriculture, Foreign

arranged for a flat where they had their meetings and when MUFAMADI had to sack
FIVAZ, FIVAZ took out the photographs and MUFAMADI couldn't do his job. Africa
KHUMALO received a 4x4 SsangYong MUSSO from Luci FIKASECO of CIEX. The

SELEBE is also involved with AIN and receives kickbacks. Intelligence Operatives
budgets is cut to a point where they have difficulty just in paying basic fees.
For example, an average project costs about R1, 5 million and then there would
normally be a minimum of three projects per year. In other words, just in

is why SASS, who is supposedly to work outside the South African borders, is
working actively inside South Africa. According to the constitution it is
illegal. Also worrying is the fact there is no coherence between the different

Dullah OMAR. This is important, because if you look at the restructuring of,
for example, the taxi industry, you will find that the same people that were
involved with the arms deal are also involved with the "reforming" of

destabilising process, was with the taxi violence. Taking then into
consideration that the CCB is still active, and OMAR’s relationship with the previous

of the drug activities in South Africa that has been ignored, is the now
infamous People's Poet, Mzwakhe MBULI, who openly stated that he had
information regarding drug trafficking in South Africa (BEELD 11-11-2000). A
contact of the author who had spoken to MBULI had confirmed that MBULI has
information regarding the trafficking of drugs, and Thabo MBEKI was one of the
people involved. Three days before he got arrested, MBULI was at the author’s
contact's house with all the documentation regarding the trafficking. The
contact wasn't able to see him and he (MBULI) told the contact that the people
involved in the trafficking were going to set him up, and before they could
meet again, MBULI got arrested. But the most important part of the saga is that
MBEKI confronted the contact at an ANC National Working Committee (NWC) meeting
regarding the contact’s meeting with MBULI.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

blamed directly on prolonged drug use. He is presently using cocaine. MBEKI
reportedly is also an alcoholic. From a psychoanalysis point of view, cocaine
and alcohol compliment each other. They fall under the Psychoactive Substance
Use Disorder under the DSM-III-R classification. A NIA contact of the author
mentioned that MBEKI presently needs a glucose drip in the mornings to get
going. Another contact of the author, who has close contact with SASS
operatives, mentioned to the author that his bodyguards must physically lock
him (MBEKI) up in a room to dry him out before meetings. He is also still in
contact with Paul ECON; coming from another source he had received cocaine from

present in Hillbrow where SEXWALE made arrangements with his runners, according
to a source in SASS. Nelson MANDELA showed him the file and was subsequently
asked to step down as Premier. His wife was also at a later stage arrested for
diamond smuggling, but high-level intervention had seen to her being released.
It is also reported that he had paid Thabo KUBU’s bills during his suspension
at NIA. Bill VENTER also brought Tokyo into Anglo. When SANAB had arrested a
prominent drug lord he phoned Tokyo, and Tokyo’s reply was that he would phone
Thabo MBEKI so that he (Thabo) could resolve the problem.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

investigation and is one of the twenty-seven syndicate leaders that had been
identified by a special investigation team. Thabo MBEKI personally instructed
the investigation team to investigate Irvan KHOSA. KHOSA was subsequently
arrested for tax evasion. The investigating team made use of typical FBI
investigative methods in that they, not being able to prove drug trafficking,
nailed him on tax evasion. A source in Scorpions confirmed that KHOZA was a MI
spy. The reason for him being out of favour is his apparent political
ambitions. He was also one of the directors on KILIMANJARO on which 80 hours of
video material are available, but not in official circles.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

about the unlicensed firearm found in his house, he told them they should ask
Jacob ZUMA (also a former MI spy). The formal reaction on the documents
regarding high level involvement with gold and drug activities that were also
found in his home, is all of a sudden made out to be unsubstantiated. MBEKI is
obviously trying to create the impression that Government will act against
criminals, sadly this is just an impression. A deal has already been struck not
to charge KHOSA before he hadn’t had a opportunity to clarify his tax
assessments.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

personally with a prostitute who was with Tito MBOWENI. She also mentioned that
Tito had smoked crack in her presence. The author has already explained that
Tito was just an extension for the EAG, and his take-over from Chris STALS was
an arrangement within the EAG. Tito MBOWENI, who had taken over from Cyril
RAMAPHOSA as chairman of COSATU when Cyril was a security police spy, must have
also been an arrangement from within the Intelligence fraternity. The
Intelligence fraternity wouldn't allow an "outsider" to take over.
Taking then into consideration now that Tito is a drug user, it makes perfect
sense that Tito forms part of the EAG plans. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

sources from former and present police agents and informers of the Gold and
Diamond branch, high ranking ANC members have been involved in the trafficking
of raw gold (Amalgam) before the 1994 elections. The three main individuals
involved in the "operation" are/were Cyril RAMAPHOSA (Since his days
as an informer for the Security branch in Westonaria and his position as a NUM
leader), Tokyo SEXWALE (Also a former labour union leader) and Thabo MBEKI. The
latter is being quoted as the authority.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

NUM, RAMAPHOSA urged union members to steal amalgam from the mines, saying that
the proceeds would accrue to ANC party coffers. After 1994 these operations
continued and the stolen Amalgam was transported by official motor vehicles
belonging to the Gauteng Legislature while SEXWALE was the Premier. Apparently
some of this Amalgam was stored at Shell house.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

from Lotterkrans, district Perdekop, processed the Amalgam to a semi-refined
state. Willem LOTTER was seen meeting with Dr. Neil BARNARD, former head of NIS
at Die Werf. The place was under surveillance from NIA because so many meetings
of suspected EAG people took place there. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

the police at LANSERIA airport with plus minus 117 kg of gold. Deon KRUGER,
their pilot, flew the semi-refined gold out of South Africa. In a report by the
Special Projects Unit resorting under MBEKI, it was mentioned that almost 200
tons of gold was stolen per year. According to the SPU report, the gold was
transported with a private plane through ZAMBIA and DAR ES SALAAM to EUROPE.
According to a seized document, the final destination was Lugana, Italy.
According to the SPU report an attorney, one VAN NIEKERK was arrested in this
regard and that the SPU had evidence that MI where involved as well.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Dimitri ECON. (See KGB, CIA and drugs reports elsewhere in the book) and still
a very close friend of MBEKI, co-ordinated these activities. According to a NIA
report, people involved with this operation were Brig. Doppies MINNAAR, Brig.
GOOSEN, Jesse DUARTE, Louis John STEVENSEN, Wessel KEMP, Gen. Wouter GROVE,
Judy SEXWALE, Brig. MODISE and Charles PREBACH. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

Hazel CRANE, who was married to Shai AVISHAR, was working as a police informer
for the Gold and Diamond branch and later for the Organised Crime Unit. It is
believed that she was using these contacts to her own advantage. It is also
possible she was giving more information than just the diamond smuggling, as
she was reporting/giving information to Doppies MINNAAR. According to one of
the author’s sources, Jaques JOUBERT (Paul ECON was also involved) was working
with Pik BOTHA and Magnus MALAN through the front company JACKHOLD and NAMIB
GEMS as part of a MI project. Part and parcel of this business were UNITA
diamonds through JACKHOLD and NAMIB GEMS to DE BEERS. In the BURGER of 15 JUNE
2001, DE BEERS denied reports from the Angolan government that they deal in
UNITA diamonds, but can it be where there is smoke there is fire? The author
was invited by a source to stop at his gate at a specific time to see who
attended a meeting regarding UNITA diamonds, and LIPMAN arrived in his Rolls
Royce and got out, together with Anton RUPERT. The people were there, so the
author has to at least partially believe the source.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the author a full layout of the diamond network and confirmed Pik BOTHA and
Magnus MALAN were personally involved in the smuggling of diamonds. The major
contact for them was Johan ERICKSON. They also made use of the DAI group whose
leaders is Matoran SMULUG and PATAGIO who was like a brother with Shai AVISHAR
head of the Israeli Mafia in South Africa. PATAGIO worked closely with Manny
JUDEN who was the link to Serge MULLEN a Belgium contact. The DAI group worked
also closely with Jeffrey REICHMAN who is the link to Johan ERICKSON, Jaques
JOUBERT and Charles NEWMAN. PATAGIO is still very close and actively involved
with Pik BOTHA and Magnus MALAN in diamond smuggling.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

speculated that top officials have been involved in the disappearance of

officer in the Security Branch who had an informer within the Gert van ROOYEN
circle. It is a known fact that Gert van ROOYEN was involved with sanction
busting together with Pik BOTHA. Somehow MOSSAD was also involved through Moss
ESTAR and Ronald TANUR, both being linked to VAN ROOYEN. Both were kicked out
of MOSSAD because of their paedophile activities, taking into further account
that one of Pik’s closest friends is Les LEBANON of KADETT INVESTMENTS, who
also is a known paedophile. Magnus MALAN has also been confirmed through
various sources of being a paedophile. Both Pik and Magnus had been linked to
the children that had disappeared for apparently sanction busting activities.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

where TOERIEN was a minister and Gert van ROOYEN, Jaques JOUBERT and Charles
NEWMAN were members, show that this group had no borders when it come to their
operations. To use a church as a front is not acceptable. But one of the
biggest unanswered questions will be if the CCB brothel in ZURICH was linked to
the disappearance of the children. Considering that TOERIEN worked hand in hand
with Jurg JACOMED, the spy from Switzerland, who was the target at the CCB
brothel. How many other people were contaminated by the brothel of the CCB in

Intelligence Services during the apartheid years made extensive use of the
various Mafia’s to bypass sanctions. It is known that making use of these
Mafia’s were official policy, therefore the increase of crime can partially be
blamed on the old apartheid regime because they give them official status
during apartheid; only now these Mafia’s are back to their real speciality of
crime. A problem that has to be addressed now is how much influence these
Mafia’s have developed with the new ANC government. Looking at certain
involvement and friendships with present politicians that was formed during the
“apartheid” years, it seems that the Mafia’s have got everything under their
control. Another point of concern is the EAG role in this contamination process
by the Mafia’s on present politicians.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

very important to the Intelligence structures because it was the Mafia’s who
needed to infiltrate the new leaders within the ANC. Most of them became
leaders in exile because they brought money in to the ANC through criminal
operations. As a Communist Party Member of Parliament told the author,
"Everybody knows that we where involved with crime to raise funds".
More than 80% of ANC operations were known to the apartheid Intelligence. A
great deal of this success can be attributed to the Mafia’s. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

to make money, it was easy money together with protection from the government.
Crime and corruption can be directly attributed to the fact that there is no
more money coming from the Intelligence structures, so to keep up with their
lifestyles, they have to increase their criminal activities. They still have
protection, but much more limited.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

figurers in the Italian Mafia is Don Roberto von Palace KOLBATSCHENKO, or more
commonly known as Vito PALAZZOLO. Another notorious Italian criminal and close
friend, Francesco PAZIENZA, was questioned in regard with the collapse of Banco
Ambrosiano and the death of the MD that was found hanging from a bridge in
London. Taking chapter three into consideration, one needn't figure out what
the reason was for the NP, and in person, Pik BOTHA, who was linked directly to
the EAG, to accommodate PALAZZOLO in South Africa. Even now, following various
requests from the Italian government to the ANC government in 1997, PALAZOLLO
is still in South Africa.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

that Craig WILLIAMS had a personal ID number within the Italian Mafia and the
Italian Mafia was also involved in these smuggling operations. WILLIAMS also
worked closely with another Italian, Mario RICCI, of the company GMR. In GMR'S
company report, RICCI described himself as Ambassador and Plenipotentiary
Minister of the Coptic Catholic Knights of Malta. It is known that Italian
criminals in particular like to use the Order, and plus minus 25 of these false
orders exist. </span><a name="_Hlt524062389"></a><!--[if supportFields]><span

was given to the author by TOERIEN. He told the author he had received it from
Gustaf SUSSE of the Knights of Malta who represented Pik BOTHA, and that they
wanted TOERIEN to do a CEP (See Chapter Three) for them. Taking then into
consideration that there are only about 25 known false orders, it is again
clear that there is a much bigger relationship than most people had previously
known to exist. Craig’s personal relationship with Pik BOTHA and Magnus MALAN
shouldn't be discarded as just a political relationship. As the author has
explained throughout the book, the same people are always involved and it can't
be just purely coincidental, as coincidence doesn't repeat itself so many times
with the same people over and over.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

now he has various informers within the police Anti-hijacking unit. He has two

Hazel CRANE was married to him and provided the flat that he had stayed in.
Doppies MINNAAR of the Police Organised Crime Unit was Hazel CRANE’s handler.
The apparent reason for the assassination of Shai AVISHAR was because Shai
AVISHAR sent money to Yossi HARARI, the "godfather" of the RAMAT

democracy with all the scandals going around, no President would have been
allowed to continue in that post, and no political party would have survived,
indicating to the author that ANC supporters are emotional when they vote and
are being exploited by their leaders. Thabo MBEKI himself said on national
television in response to the Winnie MANDELA debacle on 16 June 2001, that in
no modern democracy would Winnie MANDELA’s behaviour have been acceptable. So,
in view of the following scandals, it is obvious that Thabo MBEKI must do the
honourable thing and resign because he is destroying the ANC. Maybe that is
exactly what he is doing together with the EAG. You must have a potato for a
brain if you still support the present government (The ANC). The only political
party that is relatively clean according to the author’s research is the UDM of
Bantu HOLOMISA. Roelf MEYER and his fellow EAG people tried to corrupt him, but
failed and left the party. It may also explain why he was kicked out of the
ANC.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

that irregularities had occurred during the arms procurement process, and
prominent people had received money to influence decisions. Dr. Richard YOUNG

LEKOTA successfully prevented YOUNG to proof that corruption was involved. When
the author approached a certain German group to do the investigation for them
against the allegations, their reply was that they know about the
irregularities and the German government had actually given their approval.
What they did want to know from the author was where the leak in South Africa
was coming from so they could stop it. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

dig a bit deeper and see which people are involved with the scandal. Long
before anybody had any suspicion that there were irregularities, certain German
contacts of the author had mentioned that he have a look at the company VUWANI
(Gen. Lambert MOLOI, the son in law of Joe MODISE is one of the directors).
According to the sources, VUWANI was used to channel money to local people. The
money came from British Aerospace and paid into MARWOL INVESTMENT in a
Netherlands bank account. From there it was channelled through the Reserve bank
(Charles van STADEN handled the transfer) to UKHOZI AEROSPACE and finally to
VUWANI. From VUWANI money was paid to Joe MODISE and Thabo MBEKI.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

another irregularity when he looked into the activities of THOMPSON CSF. It is
a well-known fact that THOMPSON CSF SA had been used by the French Intelligence
as a legend for their operatives. Jean-Ives OLLIVIER, who now helps Thabo MBEKI
with his image in French speaking African countries, whose links to THOMPSON
CSF (SA and FRANCE) are also well documented, go back as far as the mid 80's.
Jean-Ives OLLIVIER’s relationship with French Intelligence is also well known.
As the author had written earlier, modern Intelligence is about creating
economic markets for your country. The French scandal with DUMAS the Former
French Minister of Foreign Affairs together with Former President of ELF Loik
Le Floch and former Elf executive Alfred SERVAN in the frigate sale to Taiwan
just shows the author is right on the mark. SERVAN had close links with
OLLIVIER, the involvement of OLLIVIER in the supplying of the armament suites
for the South African frigates was definitely not coincidental. THOMPSON CSF
South Africa received the contract for the armament suites in the frigates.
Coincidence? The author is of the opinion that the French got their inroads to
the deal through their old network, the EAG. Another friend of OLLIVIER,
Francois MITTERAND’s son, spent Christmas 2000 in jail for weapon smuggling to
Angola.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Jean-Ives OLLIVIER to Thabo MBEKI, admitted having received a Mercedes
motorcar. Tony YENGENI, the ANC chief whip in Parliament, also received a
Mercedes motorcar; actually two. One of which he gave to Wivine Ndlandu KAVIDI,
a Congo-Brazzaville girlfriend of Jean-Piere OBA from Congo-Brazzaville, and
arranged Congo-Brazzaville passports to Jean-Ives OLLIVIER and OLLIVIER'S
partner, Dominique NASPLEZES. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

is the involvement of the Wise Men and Islamic Extremists in the arms deal. The
author is not going into detail but the reader can have a look at Figures two
and three in chapter one; the involvement is obvious.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>

mentioned when he broke the news about Thabo MBEKI’s womanising ways, is that
everybody is talking about it in the corridors, but no one seems to have the
guts to bring it out in the open. The same can be said about the drugs and
scandals in which Thabo MBEKI is involved. The author has met various high
ranking people within the media, intelligence, academic and business sectors
who know about most of the activities that the author is now bringing into the
open in this book. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

course in 1983, and with him in his platoon was a person who mentioned three
things to the author namely; (1. South Africa has Nuclear weapons; (2. South
Africa is busy developing an attack helicopter and; (3. South Africa is busy
doing research, developing a method of curbing blacks from multiplying. The
plan is to make it look natural so the world wouldn't suspect anything. One of
the aspects was to make it a sexually transmittable disease because of the
blacks’ hyperactive sexual tendency and having multiple sexual partners.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

speculating about Wouter BASSON’S involvement in such a project. It wouldn't
surprise the author if South Africa was actually involved in developing the
VIRUS and that other Western countries actually co-operated. Logically, from a
Western perspective, it would make sense because they will save substantial
amounts in foreign aid.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

confirmed that Thabo MBEKI and various other senior ANC members are HIV
positive. When the exiles returned the CCB ran a major operation in the

court order against CELL-C, alleging that irregularities occurred in the
awarding of the contract to CELL-C. Allegedly the Minister of Post and
Telecommunications, Ivy MATSEPE-CASABURRI, and the Office of the President,
interfered in the awarding of the contract. The issue was settled out of court,
but there are still outstanding issues. One of the most important questions
that is still outstanding is why again the same people that where involved with
the arms scandal, are also involved with the CELL-C scandal. It seems that
within the ANC there is a small group enriching themselves through their
official positions.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The inroads that the
Muslims are making in getting their hands on the economy become more imminent

place on 16 June 2001 just showed that MBEKI doesn't have any respect towards
elders and women and showed a lack of etiquette. MBEKI’s public reply on SABC 3
on 22 June 2001 showed exactly what the author had warned against in the
preview. Thabo MBEKI'S reply that the gathering was a government arrangement
does not carry any water, as he said that the gathering was in commemoration of
the 16 June 1976 uprising against the previous government. Secondly, the
gathering was addressed by the ANC Youth League vice-chairman and Walter SISULU
(Wise MEN) who were there by Thabo MBEKI’s invitation because of their role in
bringing apartheid to an end, (Also meaning it was ANC) which meant that Winnie
MANDELA should have been seated alongside MBEKI. But sitting next to MBEKI was
Mangosutho BUTHELEZI, the apartheid (EAG) puppet supreme. Perhaps the real
reason for Thabo MBEKI not even sharing the platform is more of a situation
where Winnie MANDELA is kept informed about these activities and he is too
afraid to face her.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

scandal between the two of them when a letter written by Winnie MANDELA to
Jacob ZUMA, spelled out the unhappiness about another incident where Thabo
MBEKI has said at a National Working Committee (NWC) meeting that Winnie
MANDELA had spread gossip about his womanising activities. Winnie MANDELA told
the author that the day after the incident, she had spoken to Tito MALEKA in
regards to the incident. Tito MALEKA'S reply, according to Winnie MANDELA, was
that he, Tito MALEKA, who is also in charge of ANC VIP protection, firstly knew
about the incident, and secondly, he also mentioned various female cabinet
Ministers including, Frazer MOLEKETI, as Thabo MBEKI’s mistresses.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

with the Woman’s Day celebrations by circulate posters of him and Winnie to
attend a meeting in the Western Cape knowing that Winnie won’t be at the
meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

officials had fallen into a foreign trap. As with Thabo MBEKI and the
Intelligence services, on Mbeki’s recommendation, that make use of foreigners
to advise them, the SAA also brought in a foreigner. It seems that Thabo MBEKI
and certain officials think that foreigners know better, but most worrying is
that most of the times the foreigners don't make a real difference, but leave
the country with a lot of money. South African Airways (SAA) had appointed
Coleman ANDREWS as President and CEO of SAA. Coleman ANDREWS came to South
Africa with big fanfare but no mention was made about his past with WORLD
AIRWAYS. WORLD AIRWAYS were often involved in clandestine paramilitary air
services for the US Air Force. Coleman ANDREWS left WORLD AIRWAYS with a $1
million package and left WORLD AIRWAYS with a share price of $3 per share,
whereas before it was $13 per share. Coleman ANDREWS’ package when he left SAA,
was estimated to be in the range of R500 million. Alec ERWIN’s response in Parliament
that it is not extravagant for a foreigner, does not carry water, because
compared to the WORLD AIRWAYS package, it is extravagant, again giving the
public reason to believe that the Government is hiding something. The only
reason that there is a high-level cover-up, is that there are high-ranking
officials who received money. Government won't cover for small fish. At the
same time saying that Thabo MBEKI didn't know about this, is bullshit. Thabo
MBEKI changed the law to allow him to personally appoint Director Generals, the
reason being that he wants to be more in touch with the different departments’
performances.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Steve TSWETE made public the names of Mathews PHOSA, Tokyo SEXWALE and Cyril
RAMAPHOSA, the reader will see that these three names are the same ones the
author has mentioned right throughout the book. Taking into consideration that
Thabo MBEKI’s name is not there makes it obvious that this was a strategic
move. The question is now -by whom? The chances that the Islamic Extremists
were responsible for it, are highly unlikely. Ever since the mid-nineties there
has been conflict between the groups. Both the other groups, the EAG and the
Wise Men, gained an advantage out of the plot scandal. The EAG got their advantage
through the fact that the three persons, Tokyo SEXWALE, Mathews PHOSA and Cyril
RAMAPHOSA can't be arrested now because the issue had become politicised
anyway. Their names where linked to a plot as far back as 1996. If the EAG
where behind this plan to expose the names, the advantage now is that if the
three are not going to be charged, it will mean that publicly they will be
regarded as being not guilty, and any further investigations regarding the plot
will be brushed off as nonsense. This means that the EAG can continue with
their plans without any interference.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

their advantage through the fact that none of the three persons can now
challenge Thabo MBEKI. The Wise Men are under the impression that Thabo MBEKI
supports the Wise Men, again to the advantage of the EAG, and any plans of the
Wise Men to stop them is neutralised. The author will give a more comprehensive

the general public is aware of. Consultants bought oil for $9 per barrel from
Libya and then sold it for $23 per barrel to the Central Energy Fund. The
Central Energy Fund then sold it to Government at market price that was around
$32 per barrel and took commission. The problem wasn't the 10% commission they
took on the $32 per barrel, but the extra $9 per barrel they made, because the
Central Energy Fund is supposed to be a non-profitable organisation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

that where involved with the arms deal and CELL-C contracts can be seen in the
so-called taxi reform process. It will also be interesting to learn the answers
to the taxi leaders’ sudden silence on these issues. Not too long ago when the
former Minister of Mineral and Energy Affairs, Pik BOTHA, announced a petrol
increase, all taxi unions embarked on a strike. The petrol price has almost
doubled since then without a single strike. Did COSATU pay the leaders of the
Taxi unions to be quiet? At the same time the new reform is nothing more than a
moneymaking racket by the Government. All the new taxis will need to be
financed, giving full control over the taxi industry to the Government.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoBodyText2"><span style="color: black; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">Although not a real scandal, one has to look at the labour union as
an excuse for a few to make money. For instance, if there are a million people
affiliated to COSATU, and each person pays R30 per month, COSATU is making R30
million a month. What is COSATU doing with this money? Some people are making
money, and it is not the workers, who pay R30 per month. Taking into
consideration that Cyril RAMAPHOSA had worked for the Security Police, Tito
MBOWENI, who is using drugs and therefore most likely to be an informer as
well, and Sam SHILOWA getting out of his limousine with a fat Cuban cigar
(costing R250 each), and each one telling the people that the rich get richer
and the poor get poorer, it becomes a real joke, making a mockery of the
workers paying R30 per month. How many times have these leaders visited the
real workers at their workplace? Labour unions should be non-profitable
organisations as they are supposed to help people, not steal from them and
enriching themselves. It is also interesting that the Department of Labour
announced that they are going to limit the registration of new unions. Why? Are
the new unions a threat to the profitability of COSATU? COSATU, who are
shareholders in MTN and the Randburg Water Front, to mention but two, what are
the advantages to the people?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Only
management scores.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

and its representatives in the Intelligence community are destabilising the
whole of SADC. Countries like Angola, DRC, Congo-Brazzaville, Zimbabwe, Uganda,
Mozambique and South Africa are being destabilised. The main reason for this
destabilisation is economic. The South African destabilising goes hand-in-hand
with the EAG plan of coming into power again by the year 2003. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

destabilising the SADC and Great Lakes region is the Wise Men. Swaziland,
Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia, Lesotho are all countries that are unstable because
of Labour unions. Part of the cold war strategy was to destabilise the SADC
region in the way it is being done now. The question now is - who is behind
this process within the movement; is it the Wise Men, the EAG, Islamic
Extremists, one of the West’s Intelligence services? Only if the answer is
found to this question can stability return, together, of course, with the
expulsion of criminals within political parties.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><o:p></o:p></b></span></p>

1, the three main groups in South Africa, namely the EAG, the Wise Men and the
Islamic Extremists are also involved in destabilising the SADC region. The
Islamic Extremists’ activities are limited mainly to South Africa but will
expand northwards as their support base gains strength in the South and is
based on religion. The Wise Men’s plans for the SADC are based on the Communist
strategies as devised by the East Block countries ideologies and make use of
the labour unions. The EAG plans evolve around a super economic region and use
a combination of the above and criminal activities. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

happened in Lesotho and the subsequent involvement by the South African Defence
Force. It could have served as a warning to neighbouring countries that South Africa
will and can become involved militarily if the need arises. But the most
worrying factor is that this intervention coincides exactly with the USSR
communist strategic plan for SADC during the cold war. Primary Intelligence
indicates that Wise Men Intelligence structure was responsible behind the
scenes within Lesotho, thus creating the need for an intervention. Also part of
this information was that the election results that were the cause of the
problems, were actually altered by the Wise Men so that their puppet could
become President. South Africa was part of the so-called investigation stating
that no fraud was involved. What actually happened was that the Wise Men wanted
a government they can manipulate in Lesotho.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This led to the subsequent intervention by the ANC, intervening
militarily against the opposition, who actually won the election. The author is
of the opinion that the group in the ANC that was responsible were the Wise
Men, although other possibilities can't be ruled out.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

labour unions was, according to Intelligence reports, linked to Mathews PHOSA
instigating the unions. However, everything is still not fine and can at any
moment escalate into a civil war. It is also interesting to note the increased
newspaper articles regarding the so-called democratisation of Swaziland and the
call for SADC countries to put pressure on the King. Again Intelligence
indicates that Wise Men within COSATU is behind the destabilising of Swaziland.
All indications are that Swaziland will become a second Lesotho. What is
worrying is that Mathews PHOSA reportedly was involved, leaving open the
possibility that the EAG is trying to seize the communist plan, and looking to
Joseph's plan, it might well be that a new angle is in the process of being
formed. There is no doubt that the problems originate from South Africa. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

long-standing relationship with Swaziland, and their former informers were
COSATU leaders. The Wise Men know this, and have their own people inside
COSATU, as do the Islamic Extremists. A catch-22 situation exists in most of
the cases but it doesn't stop groups to still execute their plans. However, at
this stage the only group that can "openly" execute its plans are the
Wise Men, and if something goes wrong, they can blame it on apartheid (In
essence they mean EAG).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Because the EAG
strategy is not about manipulation and control, but rather influence, it can be
assumed that the Wise Men are behind these troubles, as the EAG already has
enough influence in Swaziland. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

that behind the destabilising in Zimbabwe, are the labour unions in Zimbabwe,
with support from COSATU. The Wise Men and the EAG can be accredited with the
current destabilisation process in Zimbabwe. The strategies of both groups for
the region include making use of COSATU to rid Zimbabwe of MUGABE via the MDC.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

objective is of an economic nature in that they are striving to gain control of
Zimbabwe’s economy via COSATU and through their labour union, which supports
the MDC. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

ex-CCB operatives who were involved with criminal syndicates and used in the
contamination process of the apartheid years. The Minister of Defence in the
Mugabe government forms part of these criminal syndicates. Therefore, on the
one hand, the EAG can control the process of lawlessness through
non-intervention by the security establishment of the government. On the other
hand, they manipulate the MDC through COSATU. Again it is about full control
over the country, so both the Wise Men and the EAG can carry the blame for the
trouble in Zimbabwe. The EAG and The Wise Men want to oust MUGABE because he is
uncontrollable. More farmers had been killed in South Africa than Zimbabwe but
the media make extensive use off the farm issue in Zimbabwe to discredit
Mugabe. This show that the issue is not about land resettlement but rather
about control of a leader.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-ZA; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

they get oil at $9 per barrel, more than 60% lower than the market price.
America and France then export their own oil at market prices. Also worrying is

with all necessities, from arms to provisions. OLLIVIER made the arrangement
through Tito MALEKA, Siphiwe NYANDA and MBEKI in person in exchange for the
building of MBEKI'S image in French-speaking African countries. OLLIVIER is
also actively involved in contaminating MBEKI and feeds the French Intelligence
with all the information. The French had made use of OLLIVIER’s connection in
Angola to infiltrate high-ranking officials in the DRC. A number of DRC high
ranks were in exile in Angola and are married to high ranks in the Fatunga
tribe in Angola. One of OLLIVIER’s spies is also now a senior Minister. OLLIVIER

World War Two with the treaty, they were not allowed to manufacture their own
enriched uranium, so they had to buy from other countries at great cost. So
they apparently started to "recycle" their used uranium, but
according to the contact they only recycled about 3%. The rest was bought from
South Africa and the then USSR. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

close ties with Gunther KOLPING, and POLTZL’s attorney is ANTCHISOVICH. There
are still a lot of questions that need to be answered, but there appears to be
more and more questions coming up, the deeper one digs. A book that has to be read
together with this group is: GERMAN HISTORY 1860- published by GOLDSTEIN

from where everything evolves are the high profile apartheid informers like Jacob
ZUMA, Mathews PHOSA, Cyril RAMAPHOSA and Joe MODISE within the ANC, and the
subsequent drug activities of Thabo MBEKI, Tokyo SEXWALE, Mathews PHOSA, Joe
MODISE, Cyril RHAMAPHOSA. If this is not resolved, the ANC and this country’s
people will never be free. From this situation all other problems evolve and
opportunities open up for foreign forces to corrupt situations like the Arms
procurement, Cell C, Drivers licences, SAA debacle, the corruption within the
Central Energy Fund and others. Figure 7 gives a summary to the reader.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

EAG. Point B represents the Wise Men and point C represents the Islamic
Extremist. Point D represents the ANC alliance and the Government at the
present moment with point E the position where they are supposed to be. If
points A and B on the circle were drawn in a strait line they would have
represented opposites. The reason why a circle is used is that they are
opposites but their methodological approach is very similar to the point that
they almost meet. C is a combination of A and B. The big problem is that D is
in the middle of these groups because of the contaminated people. The only way
out for the ANC and to move to point E is to get rid of the contaminated (A, B
and C) people. This is the only way forward and if it is not done the future of
South Africa and the region is doomed. To the people who are protecting these
people you are jeopardising your own freedom and the people you are protecting
isn’t worth it. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

because of all the groups involved in the destabilising processes. This is
perfectly normal. The bottom line is that there are secret groups destabilising
the country. Even the NP themselves acknowledged as far back as November 1994
to the UN Conference on Organised Crime in NAPLES, ITALY, that smuggling routes
where established for arms, ivory, stolen cars, heroin and cocaine by the
apartheid government. The ANC themselves acknowledge that there are secret
forces trying to destabilise the country. No government in the world will
acknowledge what the author has exposed. That is why the author has informed
the reader in the preface that with all the information that is given in this
book, in future readers will be able to analyse the news on their own and be
able to read between the lines.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

this book who are in power will never acknowledge the fact of their involvement
as mentioned. As a matter of fact a major propaganda drive against this book
will be launched by them by twisting the truth and making them lies.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

MBEKI’s preoccupation with sufficient Intelligence. What does he have to hide?
Already there is the SASS, NIA, MI, SAPS, Intelligence, Scorpions, DIS, the
ANC’s Intelligence service and the newly formed Special Intelligence structure
in the President’s office and a bunch of private companies like CIEX and
Congress Consultants. As the author mentioned elsewhere, it is very good to
have Intelligence structures, but what we have here is absurd. One structure is
enough, if they do their job properly<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the beginning, this book is not about the past but about the future. If your
intention is to build a country then you capitalise on the positive and not
harp on the negative, because the negative aspects divide. The three main
groups, the EAG, the Wise Men and the Islamic Extremists are clearly using
criminal elements within the ANC to enhance division through their own agendas.
It is therefore imperative that these criminals be removed from government. The
only people, who can effectively accomplish this task, in the immediate future,
are the uncontaminated leaders within the ANC. In the long run, the
responsibility rests squarely on the shoulders of the voter’s to decide the future
of South Africa.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

disclosures about an Enlightened Action Group that is intent on taking over the
countries government in 2004, appears to be a trick to divert attention from
political complications and disclosures that is recently the order of the day.
Genl. Tienie Groenewald is probably involved with the planning.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

latest disclosures about the Enlightened Action Group indicates that 38 well
known Afrikaans businessmen, bankers and politicians (serving and “rightwing”)
are planning to first gain a hold on the countries economy before overthrowing
the ANC regime in 2004 with a planned coup d’état.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

alledged that their income is derived from big crime and drug syndicates and
that they, by way of overseas investments in banks in Japan, Germany, England,
the USA, Switzerland and Lichtenstein and trust funds in the Canary Islands and
Honduras, collect and “wash” money. Apparently, front organisations operate
across Europe and the USA.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

alledged that the Enlightened Action Group originated in the early 1990’s, that
there are 27 local front organisations exist and that the head office is
situated in Pretoria.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

information does not correspond entirely with the facts that Advocate Piet
Pretorius revealed in “Volksverraad” (Nations Treason). He mentions that the
“Enlightened Action Movement” was already established in 1973, with the aim of
handing over government to a communist ANC regime.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

does not correspond with the current objective of wresting government out of
ANC hands and the placing of the Afrikaner in power again.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

far, Newspapers have not written about the existence of the Enlightened Action
Group.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

TIENIE GROENEWALD AND PIK BOTHA TOGETHER WITH ROELF MEYER<o:p></o:p></span></p>

disclosure about a secret meeting that took place late last year will send
shock waves through the Freedom Front (FF). And the man to be specially
implicated is Genl. Tienie Groenewald.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

November, a highly confidential meeting took place in a home in Pretorius
Street, Lyttleton. Present was two leading figures, Mr Roelf Meyer and Bantu
Holomisa. Not surprising, also present was Mr Pik Botha. However, what was
surprising was that Genl. Magnus Malan was present. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

would not have caused a big stir if it were not for the presence of two other
political figures, namely, Genl. Tienie Groenewald and a certain C. Mulder.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

these two were doing in the company of this circle must be viewed as extremely
significant because politically they don’t belong and publicly, they would not
want to be seen there.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

makes this company of Freedom Front members with Roelf Meyer signals more
significant than their mere presence at the meeting, is what transpired out of
the meeting. The shock thereof is likely to cause the roof of the FF to fly
off.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

two persons present at this meeting who declared support for the Hofmeyer party
is, (yes, hold on to your seat) Tienie Groenewald and Pik Botha. Not only is
this a staggering phenomenon, that political harmony between these two comes to
light, but ominously indicates a probable secret political relationship between
Pik Botha and Tienie Groenewald, that stretches over a long period.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

was most astonishing of all, is that at the meeting, Pik Botha and Tienie
Groenewald both undertook to channel funds to the Hofmeyer party. This can only
mean that these two have secret funds available to utilise for political
purposes or that they have connections overseas or within the money power
circle in South Africa, through which they can channel money to the Hofmeyer
party. However, the first possibility is the greatest. It has been suspected
for some time that Tienie Groenewald has access to secret funds.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

gives greater meaning to these actions of Pik Botha and Tienie Groenewald is
the fact that Mr Rusty Evans, then a fulltime Director General of the
Department of External Affairs, was also present at the meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

togetherness of these three – Pik Botha, Tienie Groenewald and Rusty Evans,
reverts naturally back to The Document of the Department of External Affairs,
in which a conspiracy, mediated by this department between NP and FF
leadership, is indicated and which disclosures led to great scrabbling and a
court case (which is far from over).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

anything was necessary to indicate at what lowest point of opportunism and
scheming certain Afrikaners conduct their politics, then the disclosure of this
meeting in Lyttelton is more than enough.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

question is: what is the political role of Tienie Groenewald? He was described
as “the master brain” behind the <o:p></o:p></span></p>

intended and early demised Afrikanervolksfront (Afrikaner Nation Front),
whereby the Afrikaner was led politically to the constitutional slaughter
house. He is a leading figure in the Freedom Front and apparently, he is
trusted and pampered by Genl. Constand Viljoen. But, he undertakes to channel
money to the Hofmeyer party which is in total opposition to the volkstaat
(nation state) story of the FF. There are pertinent questions in this regard,
such as whether this action has Genl. Viljoens approval. And, what was Mulder
(apparently Dr. Corné Mulder) together with Tienie Groenewald in this political
company?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

deepens this political anomaly to shocking disillusionment is that Tienie
Groenewald not only morally and financial supports the total liberalist and
negotiation sell-out Roelf Meyer, but that he is also together with Pik Botha,
the greatest representative of Afrikaner disloyalty and giver of service to the
nations enemies in the South African history.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

question that will be repeated over and over, is: what does Tienie Groenewald
represent in South African politics? He has admitted that he wrote FW de Klerks
Red Friday speech. He has also admitted that he, as a senior officer of
Military Intelligence was investigated by National Intelligence, apparently
because there was reason to view him as a security risk.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

does Tienie Groenewald represent in South African politics can once again be
asked. Wat does the Freedom Front represent with such a politically suspect
figure in it’s top structure? What influence has Tienie Groenewald in Radio
Pretoria, seeing that he was the first person to announce it’s establishment
and was deeply involved with it’s setting up.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

much-publicised secret meeting in a home in Pretorius Street South, Lyttelton,
which was revealed last week by The Afrikaner has caused a big stir in
political circles.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

evidence regarding who else was present can know be revealed. Beside Mr Roelf
Meyer, Genl. Bantu Holomisa, Genl. Tienie Groenewald, Dr Corné Mulder, Mr Pik
Botha, Genl. Magnus Malan and Mr Rusty Evan, Director General of External
Affairs, also present was Mr S Cleary, Johan Smit, Johan Lehman (or Leeman)

<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The fact that
the meeting was known as a “VAG meeting” indicates the possibility of feedback
to a group operating under this label and are support of Mr Roelf Meyer’s
party.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">An
investigation has been launched to establish the meaning of the abbreviation

<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Mr Jaap
Marais, Leader of the HNP, referred in a press release to the important
implications that Genl Groenewalds involvement holds for the Freedom Front and
also the irregular involvement of Mr Rusty Evans, an official of the Department
of External Affairs, with a party political action to which the previous
Minister of External Affairs, Mr Pik Botha is morally and financially committed
and in the unthinkable company of Genl Tienie Groenewald. Mr Marais’s press
release reads as follows:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoBodyText"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Tienie, Pik, Roelf and Rustyvans under the

<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The newly
revealed secret meeting in Lyttelton of 16 November, last year, has led to
extremely important political questions. That Genl Tienie Groenewald, a leading
figure in the Freedom Front (FF) expressed support at the meeting for Mr Roelf
Meyer and Genl Bantu Holomisa’s United Democratic Movement (UDM) and on top of
that undertook to channel money to the party points to an unparalleled
political absurdity. These two parties are supposed to be political poles
apart. That he did it in the presence of a co-member of the FF, Dr Corné
Mulder, confirms that this unusual political relationship between the UDM and
the FF<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">has already
reached an advanced stage.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">What makes
Genl Groenewalds support for the UDM even more suspect, is that Mr Pik Botha
also gives his moral and financial support to Mr Roelf Meyer’s party at the
meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">That Genl
Groenewald finds himself in a political relationship with Mr Pik Botha and
Roelf Meyer must rattle the very foundations of FF supporters because this begs
the question of where does Genl Groenewalds political loyalty rest.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">In addition,
the presence of Mr Rusty Evans, previously a fulltime Director General of the
Department of External Affairs at the meeting, is clearly interference by him
in party politics that is in conflict with public service ethics. This also
points finger to the Pik Both – Tienie Groenewald – Rusty Evans conspiracy
involving the much discussed document from the files of External Affairs that
testify of a secret relationship between Mr FW de Klerk and Genl Constand
Viljoen that was brought about with the help of this department. A court order
was obtained regarding statements by among others, Mr Rusty Evans and Tienie
Groenewald for the allegation that the document was falsified (This is disputed
by the HNP, because correspondence with the institution involved, regarding the
nature of the document, indicates that the statements of Mr Evans and others
could not be substantiated).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Mr Evans
presence at this secret political meeting confirms the continued political
relationship between him and Mr Pik Botha. More important, is the evidence that
he, as Director General of External Affairs, was directly involved with South
African party politics along with far-left politicians like Pik Botha and Roelf
Meyer. This implies that this Department under Pik Botha and Rusty Evans
probably were <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">continually
busy promoting left political aims in South Africa under the influence and with
the help of external (non RSA) institutions. This increases the credibility of
the contents of The Document regarding this Departments involvement with
internal party politics to the advantage of external (non RSA) institutions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">A top secret
destabilisation campaign is allegedly being waged by an elite group of 38
former and present political leaders, businessmen and some prominent
rightwingers to gain economic power and take political control by the year
2004.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The campaign
involves the use of organised syndicates smuggling drugs, guns, gold and
diamonds as well as the movement of hundreds of millions of rands of apartheid
slush funds out of the country on a “rolling programme”.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Sources in
the group have divulged that it is privately known as the Verligte Aksie Groep
(VAG).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Founded in
the early 90’s, it asked certain apartheid intelligence structures to develop
and execute a suitable strategy to deal with the expected loss of the
democratic election.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Sources have
named key figures in the group. The informers do not wish to be named because
they say their lives and considerable financial security would be in danger.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The sources
make three extraordinary claims: crime syndicates are a big source of income to
VAG members and the group is being driven by a political agenda and has built
up a fortune offshore.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">At least 250
files on operators who were involved in criminal operators – and in certain
cases still are – are being kept in the offices of one of the group’s estimated
27 local front companies. The name of the Pretoria based company where the
files are kept, is known to the Investigative Unit.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The unit also
has lists of names of people who have been involved in the crime syndicates in
among other countries, Britain, Switzerland, the United States and Germany.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Those who see
a political agenda behind the campaign say the VAG wants to take power in 2004,

<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Yesterday
afternoon, President Thabo Mbeki was loudly applauded by some 2700 congress
attendee’s of COSATU when he accused the privileged of apartheid and the
“guardians of capital” of trying to destroy the alliance between the ANC,
Cosatu and the SACP.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">With the
opening of Cosatu’s four yearly congress in Midrand, Mbeki and Mr Willie
Madisha showed the world that the alliance is healthy and strong despite
organisational problems and even not a little desertion among Cosatu members
who would like to break ties with the ANC.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">In his speech
Madisha demonstrated Cosatu’s independence from the ANC and government with
biting criticism of the government, especially about the proposed changes to
the labour laws. “The changes will give the minister of labour draconian power,
so that he can even allow child labbour.” Madisha said. He asked congress
delegates to put forward suitable mass-action proposals with which the changes
can be fought.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Madisha also
attacked the governments macro-economic policy, Gear and pointed out that not
one of Gear’s set aim’s had been achieved since the government accepted the
policy in June 1996.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Mbeki, who’s
turn came shortly after<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Madisha, was
loudly applauded before his speech, especially when he removed his jacket and revealed
the red Cosatu T-shit he was wearing.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">A few minutes
before, three of his ministers, Mr Jeff Radebe of public affairs, Kader Asmal
of national education and especially Membathisi Mdladlana of labour, were
openly jeered when their names were read off the honorary guest list.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">After Mbeki’s
speech, several presents were presented to him and a blanket in the Cosatu
colours was draped over his shoulders. He received a long ovation before he
left the congress venue.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p align="left" class="MsoBodyText" style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Courier New"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Mbeki spent
almost half of his speech criticising his political opponents who are
attempting to end the alliance.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

is financially independent. He is a successful businessman that is reckoned to
be a multi-millionaire.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Lutzkie, a well-known boxer and cage fighter, brought the multi-million rand civil claim against Shepherd in a tit-for-tat lawsuit that has been in progress for the past two years.</p><div id="fourth-par-video" style="box-sizing: border-box; max-width: 100%; position: relative;"></div><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">In July 2010, the three businessmen were shocked when 25 heavily armed police raided their upmarket houses in the early hours of the morning, before handcuffing them and bundling them into police cells.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">Members of the police’s crack intervention unit arrested them and transported them all the way to Middelburg in Mpumalanga. Interestingly, a police reservist and associate of Lutzkie was in charge of the operation. </p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">When the court case was to be postponed until the next day for a formal bail application, Smith, one of the businessmen, told the magistrate that Lutzkie had phoned him and threatened to have him held overnight in a general population cell. Smith pleaded with the magistrate for the three to be held separately and thus avoid Lutzkie’s alleged plan to have them gang-raped.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Two days after the three were released on bail, Lutzkie survived an alleged attempt on his life in Middelburg, when three men attacked him in his bakkie and fired 27 times at him with an R5 assault rifle. He miraculously escaped almost unscathed.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">Shortly afterwards, the three businessmen received a call from their legal team, instructing them to return to Middelburg for their bail to be revoked because the prosecutor feared they had orchestrated the attack.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">It later turned out that Lutzkie was alive and well and had told the local newspaper about his “dramatic escape” by shooting one of his attackers in the face. “I saw his face explode,” was how he described his ordeal. Nobody has been caught to date and this incident also forms part of the task team’s current investigation.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">As the three men were acquitted on all the charges, they issued summonses for civil claims amounting to R60 million against Lutzkie, a private investigator and police reservist in the town, and a Randburg attorney.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">In a surprise move, Lutzkie conceded last year under cross-examination in the Durban High Court that he had paid R12 million for his “police investigation”. Concerned for her own safety, a female member of the legal team, Advocate Yolande de Klerk, wanted to know from Lutzkie whether he was serious when telling her out of court that she would be struck down dead.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">“Mr. Lutzkie, I presume you were not serious when you said that if I asked you a nasty question, I will be struck down dead,” De Klerk wanted to know from Lutzkie during cross-examination.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">“No it was a joke,” was his response. </p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">No stranger to controversy, Lutzkie was yet again embroiled in a strange incident when the notorious West Rand gangster Ralph Haynes mysteriously disappeared in January 2011. He was last seen alive boarding Lutzkie’s helicopter at a small airstrip outside Pretoria. <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Haynes was the last member of a gang run by jailed Apartheid hit man Ferdi Barnard, who was also the assassin of Wits academic Dr. David Webster. The gang was known in former years for ruling Johannesburg, particularly Hillbrow. The former death row inmate was also a bodyguard for Afrikaans singer Steve Hofmeyr and friends with Springbok legend Joost van der Westhuizen and his former wife, Amor Vittone.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">Dawie Lotter, who accompanied Haynes to the Kitty Hawk airport, told police they were only there to pick up R400,000 when the helicopter whisked his long-time friend away. Lutzkie says adamantly: “I didn’t kill Ralph Haynes.”</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">He says he has witnesses who saw Haynes driving away from his home in Middelburg in the Ford Bantam bakkie lent to him.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">The bakkie was later found abandoned with windows broken on the road between Bronkhorstspruit and Kempton Park, but Haynes has since disappeared without a trace.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />While Lutzkie confirmed that he gave Haynes money because he claimed he knew the identity of the three shooters trying to assassinate him in Middelburg, he denied giving him another R500,000 just before Christmas 2010. “Zunaid Moti gave him that money,” he said.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Moti, the flamboyant businessman known for his fast cars and property deals, denied giving Haynes the half million rand. “Ralph still owes me money for the BMW 6 Series car and the Nissan Murano he bought from me,” he said. Moti added that the only business deal he had with Lutzkie was selling him the helicopter he was flying.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">The critical question is whether Lutzkie helped Haynes disappear, or took revenge for a double cross.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">Cilliers, who was released from hospital, made a statement about the attack on him this week, but Daily Maverick has learned reliably that no official criminal charges were laid. It’s believed that Cilliers will lay charges at a strategic point when the investigating team has concluded its work and is ready to pounce on the suspect.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">Warned by the Hawks that their lives may be in danger, the legal team had closed ranks and was not available for comment.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">Cilliers, the man who defended notorious people like “Dr Death”, Wouter Basson, Jackie Selebi and the Waterkloof Four, was on the day of his attack appearing in court on the behalf of the defendant, At Shepherd. He was walking with his legal team from the court building to the advocates’ chambers in Vermeulen Street when a young white man in a baseball cap came running from behind.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">According to Cilliers, he felt a sharp pain in his buttocks and, a few steps further on, started feeling dizzy and nauseous. He was immediately taken to the Heart Hospital in Sunnyside, where doctors conducted blood tests on him in the intensive care unit.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px;">The blood tests were inconclusive, but a source close to Cilliers claimed that he might have escaped death only because it was unlikely that the assailant actually managed to inject him. It is believed that he was in such a hurry that he merely pricked him. <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 300 !important; text-decoration-line: underline;">DM</span></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box;

margin-top: 0px;">Van der Merwe said kidnapping-related hostage negotiations could be extremely complicated, with each situation differing. </p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">The kidnapping of four siblings, however, was “extraordinary”.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">“This is uncharted territory in terms of SA kidnappings, with kidnappers usually taking one child, usually the youngest.”</p><h3 style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; margin-top: 0px;">Huge teams work to save hostages</h3><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">Broadly speaking, he said, media blackouts were desired, especially when negotiations were at a sensitive stage.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">“It usually means a resolution of some sort is near, and things are coming to an end one way or another, with either the hostages about to be released or police closing in on the kidnappers.”</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">Van der Merwe said the number one objective in negotiations was the preservation of life, including the lives of the kidnappers.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">“This is done by building trust with the kidnappers. Trust is established by building a relationship with the perpetrators, sticking to what you tell the kidnappers and ensuring you deliver on any promises you make. </p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">“One never lies to a perpetrator and you always assure them you are there to resolve the situation peacefully and get everyone out alive, including them.”</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">He said the police team involved in securing the hostages' freedom would be immense, especially in cases such as the Moti kidnapping.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">“There will be a core team of 10 senior officers, who, if children are involved, will include members of the family violence, child protection and sexual offences unit, detectives and a hostage negotiator.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">“The officers on the ground can number nearly 200 people. They will include detectives, telecommunication specialists, cybercrimes investigators and crime intelligence officers. If force is required to free the hostages the team will include members of the special task force, national intervention unit and tactical response team.”</p></div></div></div><div aria-label="widget-anchor" class="article-widget article-widget-text" id="a8aebd1e-d5b8-4fd1-9567-bf7fb4a6639f" rel="text" style="border-bottom: 0px !important; border-top: 0px !important; box-sizing: border-box; clear: none; font-family: Lora, serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px !important; margin-top: 0px !important; padding: 10px 0px;"><div class="wrap" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><div class="text" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><h3 style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; margin-top: 0px;">Payment of ransoms frowned upon</h3><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">Complicating some hostage negotiations, he said, were the demands for ransoms, with payment often demanded in cryptocurrencies.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">“Cryptocurrency is demanded as payment because of the difficulty in tracing its movement once paid. Ransoms also vary extensively depending on a family’s wealth. </p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">“In SA the police do not condone the paying of ransoms. The problem is families, who often don’t trust the police to get their loved ones safely back to them, go behind the backs of negotiators and investigators to pay ransoms.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">“Ransoms are not surety the hostages will be released.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 0px;">“Negotiations around kidnappings, especially if a wealthy family is involved, can easily go on for a week or more.
