Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: In June 2022, the Zondo Commission filed the final part of its report on state capture in South Africa. The findings describe multiple incidents of state capture that took place in South African government departments and state-owned enterprises during the former presidency of Jacob Zuma. Released in four parts, the report outlines extensive corruption, for example, in parastatals like the South African Revenue Service (Sars) and South African Airways (SAA), at the state-owned companies Denel, Eskom and Transnet, and involving the privately owned state contractor BOSASA, as well as the attempted capture of the National Treasury. Chaired by then Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo and held from January 2018 to June 2022, the Commission heard testimony from more than 300 witnesses over 429 days of public hearings.
