Batohi did not name the Guptas or state whether the requests for mutual legal assistance related to them.

The National Prosecuting Authority is having “particular difficulties” with requests for mutual legal assistance from India and the United Arab Emirates , National Director of Public Prosecutions Shamila Batohi told the portfolio committee on justice and correctional services on Tuesday.

“We are having particular difficulties with MLAs that went to India and the United Arab Emirates. We do have a treaty with India, but not with the Emirates.“The process on the other side has not been forthcoming.” “People are becoming impatient. I think you’ll see the honeymoon is now over,” Breytenbach said to Batohi who took up the role of NDPP about eight months ago.

She added measures to speed up the finalisation of high-value state capture cases were implemented and staff was dedicated from regional offices to assist with state capture cases. “We looked at the issue of representivity and value for money, because the rates that they have given us are not the usual senior counsel rates, or we have received their services at reduced rates.”
