Gupta family extradition is going ahead, earliest date finally released
Remaining with news regarding the Gupta family, Briefly News published an article that South Africa is making huge strides in its efforts to bring the Guptas back to the country so that they can face punishment for their participation in the nefarious practice of State Capture.
The architects of the corrupt government network have been hiding out in Dubai, UAE, for the past few years but thanks to a recently-passed deal, they may be deported shortly.
Both South Africa and the United Arab Emirates have an agreement in place that allows both countries to process criminals who committed their crimes in one country and then moved to the other, according to a report by The South African.
