Van Rooyen must reveal why he was in Dubai with Guptas
10 April 2016
The DA will be raising questions to the Minister of Co-operative Governance and Traditional Affairs, Des van Rooyen, with regards to a trip he made to Dubai with the Gupta family last year- allegedly in his “private” capacity. This is highly suspicious considering the Guptas were in Dubai at the same time (see Sunday Times report).
Specifically, the DA will, through parliamentary questions, pursue attaining clarity on:
Whether he met with the Guptas or any other Gupta-affiliated persons;
Whether President Jacob Zuma had prior knowledge of this trip and whether he approved and signed off on such a trip;
