Gupta brothers: Renewal of SA passports denied

Posted on 31/12/2019 Leave a comment

The Department of Home Affairs refused the application for renewal of passports from the Guptas, and with it began another phase to capture the controversial figures.

The Gupta brothers have travelled all over the world with SA passports as if they are citizens of the country.

In the meantime, an attempt is being made to reach an extradition agreement with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to have the Guptas currently located there extradited to South Africa where they will be charged and prosecuted for numerous irregularities.

The allegations were made that the Guptas were the main players in the State hijacking under the Zuma regime, and were also involved in various transactions of which the Vrede Dairy Farm is one.

The Department of Home Affairs faces about R2 billion in claims due to their inability to meet expected services as well as incompetence to maintain law and order in its immigration department

Posted on 12/11/2019 Leave a comment

The Department of Home Affairs already has claims worth about R2 billion that come from civilians because of its inability to meet expected services.

The claims are still growing due to the legal costs involved in the construction of cases that had to be resolved in court and of which the Department was apparently ordered many times to pay the costs.

Acting Director General One Thulani Mavuso acknowledged that his department has a “continuous obligation” totaling just over R2 billion.

The department’s immigration department alone has a range of claims of R698.5 million and tender contracts of R829 million as well as R479.7 million of civil claims.

The department recently admitted in a lawsuit that it does not have the funds necessary to maintain law and order in its immigration department.

SA Citizen whom is in possession of a green ID booklet must take late mother to Department of Home Affairs otherwise he is recorded as illegal immigrant

The 45-year-old Robert Masuku has been voting in the elections since 1994, but now a new turn has taken place.

The Department of Home Affairs informed him that he had to bring his late mother because otherwise he will be considered as an illegal immigrant.

If his late mother does not come, he cannot get a new ID document, said the department official.

When he took his daughter to the Department’s Mamelodi office last year to get an ID document because she was 18, the official informed him that he was on record as an illegal immigrant.

He was born in Nelspruit and has a green ID book, but no, he is illegal in the country unless he brings his late mother to the office.
