"We had many meetings of this kind with other institutions and entities … I agreed to go to the meeting with them."
Saloojee claims he was then taken into another room, where Atul Gupta and then public enterprises minister Malusi Gigaba - who would have effectively been Saloojee's political boss - were present. Saloojee said Gigaba’s appearance at the first meeting played a part in him feeling pressure to attend when they called upon him again.
Answering questions about Magashule's son involvement in the meeting, Saloojee said:"They said, 'He works with us,' - something to that effect”. "It became clear to me that they wanted to enter the defence environment and they had seen Denel as a vehicle to enter the defence environment," said Saloojee.
"When I get there, it was only Rajesh and Essa. When I got into the meeting, the atmosphere was quite tense. This time Rajesh took the lead and he says to me, 'You are not cooperating and this lack of cooperation is a serious issue.'
