For those of you interested, here is the thread about Fana Hlongwane's involvement, the Sanip corruption over and above the bribe and Saab -

Makes for some interesting reading. I did some digging in to the financials of Sanip and BFG Holdings and even without the bribe, corruption and financial maladministration are evident.
Fana Hlongwane holds the answers to many of the unanswered questions, especially if it turns out that he was the sole director of Sanip/BFG.
We then have the BAE angle. They bribed Zuma through Shifty Schaik however the details of the companies used to launder these bribes is kept under lock and key by Anwar Dramat if memory serves correct. Also remember that when the Scorpions were disbanded, during the transition phase to the Hawks, the evidence against anyone investigated was transferred to the NPA, however it's generally accepted that our esteemed security services agency took ownership of this evidence, which included many original documents. They somehow managed to find themselves on a flight to Mauritius along with other documents already being hidden there.
We also have Fana Hlongwane financing and signing sureties on properties on behalf of numerous government officials and private individuals involved in the arms deal during the same period that he was receiving bribes through Hlongwane Consulting, from Sanip/BFG. Who was the director of Sanip and why did Ernst and Young sign off the books? Looks like Hlongwane was accepting the risk and siphoning the bribes to others.
Then we can don our tinfoil hats and question ABSA and Liberty's involvement in supposedly laundering their dirty apartheid cash piles they were sitting on at the time.
Basically this is the single biggest fraud committed on South Africans, ever. It runs so deep that if the truth were to come out, it would shake the very foundations of our country...
