South African Minister Denies Wrongdoing at Parliamentary Hearing

Public Enterprises Minister Lynne Brown has been giving testimony at the parliamentary inquiry into the state of government parastatals, with a particular focus on the board of the energy giant Eskom and the control exerted by outside parties like the Guptas, a family named in a state capture report by the former public protector Thuli Madonsela. The minister has denied that she ever met the Guptas - a claim that has been contradicted by former executives at the power utility.
