Justice Minister, Ronald Lamola says he became aware of the failed extradition of the Gupta brothers from the United Arab Emirates only late last night. This despite Rajesh and Atul Gupta possibly being released from custody in the UAE from as early as the 13th of February earlier in the year. The brothers were understood to have been in custody in a Dubai prison following last year's high-profile arrest. However, reports have emerged that the brothers were spotted in Switzerland late last month. Minister Lamola says these latest developments in relation to the Gupta brothers should not be understood as a failure by the state.
