OP-ED: Gaddafi’s money and the prospects of accountability: Zuma exposes not just himself, but South Africa too

report on 7 April 2019, former president Jacob Zuma may have been involved in moving millions of US dollars from Libya to South Africa.

On the evening of Saturday 26 February, 2011 the United Nations Security Council unanimously passed Resolution 1970 referring the situation in Libya to the International Criminal Court . The resolution was part of a robust set of Security Council measures directed at the Libyan regime, including a travel ban and asset freezes for Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi and his associates, and an arms embargo.

Of importance, for now, is the asset freeze: it was imposed on individuals both in and closely linked to Gaddafi’s government; any frozen assets would be made available to benefit the population. The Security Council took this provision so seriously that it established a Committee to monitor the implementation of the sanctions, assisted by a panel of experts. That committee continues its work today and its mandate was, by Security Council Resolution 2441 of 5 November 2018, renewed until 20 February 2020.

What does all this mean? It appears that Zuma may have facilitated the violation of the Security Council’s asset freeze and/or allowed funds to be channelled out of Libya to South Africa.
