Dan Mantsha, lawyer of former president Jacob Zuma, on Tuesday said he had no knowledge of his client's intention to embark on litigation against the Sunday Times. On Tuesday morning, Africa News 24-7 posted a message to Twitter reporting that Zuma was set to sue the publication over its front-page story. The Gadaffi money reportedly amounted to R422m. Mantsha told News24 he would contact Zuma to seek clarity about his alleged intention to take legal steps against the Sunday Times. Zuma reportedly moved the money to Eswatini, where King Mswati's regime took hold of it.
