Fana Hlongwane denies bribe was offered to Mcebisi Jonas at Gupta meeting

arms deal adviser

Hlongwane, who appeared before the commission on Wednesday, made quick work of questions relating to a meeting between himself, Jonas and former president Jacob Zuma’s son at the Gupta family’s Saxonwold home in 2015. When Duduzane Zuma appeared before the commission in October, he conceded that he had arranged the meeting between Jonas and Hlongwane, and drove Jonas to the Gupta compound. Asked why he was taken to the Gupta family’s home, Zuma said it was a matter of a “proximity and a time-frame issue”. He maintained that there was nothing wrong in doing so.

“Zuma was highlighting to me that he had been hearing rumours that I was allegedly blackmailing Jonas. He mentioned it several times on different occasions. I did not take up the matter at the time because I thought it improbable because of the relationship I had with Jonas,” he said.
