South Africa: Multinationals, Others Ensnared in Gupta Web?
It has been alleged that two German software companies, SAP and Software AG were paying the Guptas for lucrative government contracts. Trillian, the company formerly chaired by ex-minister Tokyo Sexwale, who was a presidential aspirant, also called for an inquiry after links to the Gupta family were reported. Individuals who allegedly stood to gain from the Gupta family association include Brian Molefe, formerly from Eskom, and KPMG's former executive Moses Kgosana, who attended a Gupta family wedding. All have been implicated in corruption claims.
