Proposals, feasibility study for Estina dairy project sloppy, Zondo Commission hears | IOL News

Johannesburg - Massive inflation of prices, shoddy proposals and feasibility work were flagged in the Free State Estina dairy project at the Zondo Commission on Monday.

The dairy farm, near Vrede, is at the centre of a corruption scandal involving the Gupta family in which they are accused of stealing R200 million with the assistance of top politicians and government officials. Earlier on Monday, former provincial treasury official Anna Susanna Fourie detailed how Estina was appointed without procurement processes, with the agriculture department applying pressure for it to be given a R30 million prepayment within the same month.

“According to the two project proposals, in the one it was R500 million over five years and in the second one it was R228 million over three years.
