LIVE FEED: StateCaptureInquiry March 11, 2019

Eskom employees Gert Opperman and Johan Bester are expected to take the stand.

So far the commission has dealt with the controversial Huarong deal and Eskom's involvement in coal mining with the Gupta family's Tegeta company.On Friday, Opperman admitted to the inquiry that it seemed like Eskom's interaction with Optimum coal under Tegeta was different. It differed from the power utility's interaction with the same mine while it was owned by mining giant Glencore.

Former Glencore CEO Clinton Ephron had told the inquiry a few weeks ago that Optimum had asked for the pricing agreement to be renegotiated but this was rejected by Eskom. Opperman was asked about letters written by Optimum CEO George van der Merwe who threatened that Optimum would be placed under business rescue if the issue of pricing was not sorted.
