Many secrets surrounding the corruption and state capture in South Africa were buried for good after the communist-minded Gavin Watson died when he crashed into a concrete pillar with a Toyota car on Monday morning.
There are suspicions that Watson wanted to evade Tuesday’s testimony before the Zondo commission and flee the country, especially considering the numerous bribes he was dealing with.
Observers later said Watson’s death would suit a lot of corrupt people like a glove, and their scandalous actions can now be easily refuted.
The possibility that Watson committed suicide is considered the sole cause of the accident in some circles, and the allegation that he did not have the expertise to drive a gearshift car because he was only driving cars with automatic gears, is rejected.
