DA lays charges against consultancy firm
Updated | By Slindelo Masikane
The DA has laid charges of fraud, racketeering and collusion against the global consultancy firm, McKinsey.

The charges have been laid in terms of Section 21 of the Prevention and Combating of Corrupt Activities Act.
It comes after McKinsey allegedly ignored warnings from senior South African staff members that deals done with Trillian, Eskom and other Gupta-linked companies were not above board.
DA Shadow Minister of Public Enterprises Natasha Mazzone says: "By laying these charges, we have kicked off the process of ensuring that these allegations are first, fully investigated and second, that if there is a case to answer, that McKinsey is held accountable to the full extent of the law."
The DA says it will not stand by as people abuse their positions of power.
"State capture has crept into almost every corner of our country and we cannot allow it to continue with impunity. There must be consequences for selling off contracts, state institutions and even ministerial positions," Mazzone says
