SCORPIO and NEWS24: Revealed: Simelane’s VBS-linked coffee shop ‘loan agreement’ likely backdated

The 'loan agreement’ that justice minister Thembi Simelane is relying on to validate the R575,600 benefit she received in 2016 from a corruption-accused fixer for VBS bank appears to have been backdated. Dodgy dates and timeline of events suggest a faked contract. Her recent explanation to Parliament of the circumstances around the ‘loan’ repayment further contradicts the requirements of this purported agreement.
