NPA opposing Atul Gupta's application
The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) says it will be opposing Atul Gupta's application to have the court "reconsider" a preservation order.
The Assets Forfeiture Unit claims Gupta was paid R10 million from the Estina Dairy Project into his bank account, and has since frozen his account.
In a court document Gupta also states that he is out of the country.
