Unless the contrary is stated or the context indicates otherwise, these facts are borne out by the investigations of the parties. These facts are, to the best of my knowledge and belief, both true and correct. ‘THE APPLICANT 7 The Applicant in this matter is the National Director of Public Prosecutions, appointed in terms of section 179(1)(a) of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996 read together with section 10 of the NPA Act. The applicant has offices at 123 Westlake Avenue, Weavind Park, Silverton, Pretoria. THE RESPONDENTS 8 The First Respondent is McKinsey and Company Africa (Pty) Ltd, (registration number 2013/091251/07) (McKinsey), a private company duly incorporated and registered in terms of the company laws of South Africa with its principal place of business at 140 West Street, Sandton. The Second Respondent is Eskom Holdings SOC Limited, a state-owned company with limited liability duly incorporated in terms of the Eskom Conversion Act, Act 13 of 2001 and the company law of South Africa with its principle place of business at Megawatt Park, Maxwell Drive, Sunninghill, Sandton. ‘THE FORFEITURE APPLICATION 10 1 12 13 This is an application in terms of Section 48 of the POCA, declaring certain propetty forfeited to the state in terms of Section 50(1) of the POCA. The said property is currently the subject of a preservation order granted by this court on 14 December 2017, under court case 85105/17 (‘the Preservation Order”). The said preservation order relates to an amount of R 1 billion (“the property”) paid by Eskom Holdings SOC Limited (Eskom) to McKinsey and Company Africa Ply Limited, Part of the said amount, namely an amount of approximately R 105 000 000.00 is currently held in McKinsey’s Incorporated Standard bank account, with account number 421061812. For reasons set out hereunder, | submit that the property is the subject matter of current application for a forfeiture order. JURISDICTION 14 The preservation order, which is a pre-requisite for this forfeiture order was granted by this honourable court. | further point out that the property, is located within the area of jurisdiction of this honourable court. | accordingly submit that this court has jurisdiction to hear this application. BACKGROUND 15 16 7 18 On the 14 December 2017, the Applicant obtained a Preservation Order in terms of Section 38 (1) of the POCA, under court case number 85105/17, in respect of the following property: 15.4 R 1 billion paid by Eskom to McKinsey in respect of the Master Service Agreement 15.2 R595 milion paid to Trillian. In terms of the preservation order granted by this honourable court on 14 December 2018, Mr Medwin Madoda Sifiso Nxumalo (Nxumalo) was appointed as the curator bonis and the portion of the property at issue in these proceedings is, currently in his custody and control. In support, hereof | attach a copy of the preservation order marked as annexure MKM 4 In terms of section 56(1) of the POCA, this honourable court may appoint a curator bonis to perform the functions necessary to fulfil the provisions of a forfeiture order. Accordingly, a curator bonis will be required to carry out the functions necessary to fulfil the terms of any forfeiture order granted by this honourable court. In the circumstances, | respectfully request this honourable court to also extend ‘and confirm the appointment of the said Nxumalo, as curator bonis in this matter. 4 H/ 1 | | 19 20 2 22 23 Pursuant to his appointment, the curator bonis engaged with the First Respondent with the view giving effect to the preservation order. Based on the said engagements the First Respondent gave an undertaking to secure the amount of R ‘billion, which amount the First Respondent had always undertaken to pay back should a court order be made. | am advised in this regard that as part of their proposed undertaking, the First Respondent secured the amount of approximately R 105 million, in the said Standard Bank account as part of the R 1 billion to be paid back. To date and notwithstanding the curator’s endeavours to locate and secure the amount of R 695 million paid by Eskom to Trillian, the curator bonis, to date, did not succeed in locating the said property. | wish to point out that the Applicant will not seek a forfeiture order in the amount of R 595 million paid by Eskom to Trillian in these proceedings and as such no relief ian in these proceedings. will be sought from On or about 29 March 2018, Eskom instituted review proceedings against the Applicant, Trillian and the First Respondent. The said proceedings were intended to inter alia; 23.1 declare the master service agreement contract invalid; 23.2 institute a claim for the recovery of the funds paid to the respective Respondent and Trillian. NOTICE TO INTERESTED PARTIES. 24 25 In terms of paragraph 4 of the preservation order, the Applicant was directed to give notice of the granting of the preservation order, as is relevant to the current application to: 24.1 McKinsey and Company Africa (Pty) Ltd, 88 Stella Street, Sandown Mews East, Sandown, Gauteng: The preservation order together with court papers were served. 25.1 On the First Respondent, on 29 January 2018, at 23 Melrose Boulevard (4 Floor), Melrose Arch, Johannesburg, by the Sheriff; Johannesburg North. The return of service in respect of the Respondent is attached hereto as annexure "MKM 2". NOTICE TO OPPOSE 26 27 On 7 February 2018, the First Respondent filed a Section 39(3) and 39(6) in terms of the POCA. Section 39(3) of the POCA allows for any person to enter an appearance giving notice of his/her intention to oppose the making of a forfeiture order or to apply for an order excluding his/her interest in the property concerned from the operation thereof. Section 39(6) of the POCA requires of a person who has entered an appearance referred to above to fle an affidavit stating 27.1 {ull particulars of the identity of the person entering the appearance; 27.2 the nature and extent of his or her interest in the property concerned; and We 27.3 the basis for the defence upon which he or she intends to rely in opposing a forfeiture order or applying for the exclusion of his or her interest from the operation thereof. REQUIREMENTS FOR FORFEITURE ORDER IN TERMS OF SECTION 50 OF THE POCA 28 The High Court is empowered to grant a forfeiture order in terms of section 50(1) of the POCA if the court finds on a balance of probabilities that the property is an instrumentality of an offence referred to in Schedule 1 or the proceeds of unlawful activities as defined in the POCA, or both. 29 In terms of section 50(2) of the POCA, the court may when it makes a forfeiture order or at any time thereafter, make any ancillary orders that it considers | appropriate, including an order for and with respect to facilitating the transfer to the State of property forfeited to the State under such an order. PUBLICATION OF PRESERVATION ORDER AND COMPLIANCE WITH 90- DAY PERIOD 30 In terms of Section 40 of the POCA, a preservation order will expire 90 days after the date on which notice of the making of the order is published in the Government Gazette unless, inter alia, there is an application for a forfeiture order pending before this honourable court in respect of the property, which is subject to preservation. 31 Anotice of the granting of the preservation order was published in the Government Gazette in terms of Section 39(1)(b) of the POCA on 23 February 2018. | 32 A copy of the aforesaid publication is annexed hereto and marked annexure “MKM 3”. The preservation order will accordingly expire on 24 May 2018. : 15 33 in the event that the present application is instituted before the expiration of the 90- day period, which | intend to do, the preservation order will stil be in force and the requirements of Section 48(1) of the POCA would be satisfied. FACTUAL AND SETTLEMENT DISCUSSION 34 The NDPP and McKinsey had entered into settlement negotiations in respect of the forfeiture of the McKinsey property on an unopposed basis (McKinsey forfeiture), after the order was served in January 2018. 35 While these discussions were ongoing, Eskom, the sole victim of the unlawful activities committed, brought review proceedings before this court in which it sought, on an interim basis, the staying of these preservation proceedings (and thus, consequently the forfeiture proceedings) pending the outcome of its review in Which it will seek, inter alia the repayment of the monies held by McKinsey and in respect of which the preservation order was obtained. 36 The court appointed curator bonis, during the execution of the preservation order, entered into negotiations with McKinsey and in terms of such negotiations, McKinsey has undertaken to ring fence the entire amount 37 The Applicant seeks the sole exclusion of the interest of Eskom to the McKinsey property and will move for the repayment of this property, minus the deduction of fees of the curator bonis, to Eskom. 38 Settlement negotiations are between McKinsey, Eskom and the Applicant are cengoing and have reached an advanced stage. The purpose of the settlement agreement is essentially that McKinsey has publicly offered to repay Eskom the amounts paid out under the Master Services Agreement, and in the interests of harmonising the forfeiture proceedings and Eskom review proceedings, and acting 39 40 in the broader public interest so as to ensure the return to Eskom of the funds paid by it to McKinsey, as quickly as possible. Essentially Eskom and the Applicant in the forfeiture application seek the same relief and the Applicant is further not opposed to the Eskom final relief sought and further recognises Eskom's interest in this application. Unfortunately, these settlement discussions have reached an impasse and, in order to prevent the lapsing of the preservation order obtained by the Applicant, | decided that this application for forfeiture, in respect of the amount preserved at least, be pursued forthwith. ESKOM REVIEW PROCEEDINGS 41 42 43 ‘On 29 March 2018, Eskom instituted review proceedings. The relief sought by Eskom in the review application, Case number: 2877/18, is that the Court grants relief ordering all or part of the approximately R16 billion to be returned to Eskom, by McKinsey and Trillian, or such relief is agreed between any of the parties to the Eskom application. These review papers, which are of a voluminous nature, were served on both the Applicant and the First Respondent and | accordingly pray that the contents thereof be incorporated herein as to not unduly burden the court record. As a result, the Applicant has identified the interest of Eskom, as the victim and has excluded their interest from the operation of the forfeiture order. (On 29 March 2018, the Applicant directed a letter to the Second Respondent indicating amongst others that the Applicant recognises the interest of the Second Respondent and the ultimate purpose of the forfeiture order will be to ensure that the Second Respondent is compensated for the loss suffered. | attach hereto a 9 WV copy of a letter dated 29 March 2018 forwarded by myself to the Attorney's of record of the Second Respondent on 29 March 2018. The attention of this court is respectfully directed to paragraph 2.2 on page 2 of this letter which is quoted in full “The NDPP will proceed with a forfeiture application, which will be finalised in terms of a Settlement Agreement between the parties, which agreement will seek to achieve, amongst others, the following: 43.1 to recognise and protect the interests of the NDPP and Eskom respectively, with the ultimately purpose of ensuring that Eskom is compensated the financial loss suffered; 43.2 that the respective and envisaged civil recovery processes by the NDPP and Eskom are recognised and harmonised with the view of ensuring the most equitable result and in the most cost effective manner, and 43.3 that Eskom’s interests, ie the Rt, 6 billion) will be recognised and protected within the context of the envisaged forfeiture proceedings’. In support hereof | attach a copy of the letter dated 29 March 2018 marked MKM 4. THE PROPERTY IS THE PROCEEDS OF UNLAWFUL ACTIVITY 44 The affidavits filed in support of the Applicant's application for the preservation order set out the basis upon which the applicant prayed for and was granted the preservation order by this honourable court. The papers filed in casu follow on from the legal and factual basis laid down in the founding papers to the preservation application and as such, the preservation papers are accordingly incorporated herein, The legal and factual basis upon which the preservation order was granted is discussed again hereunder for easy reference. 45 47 The court is referred to the stalement of Samson John Schalkwyk (Schalkwyk) which sets out the unlawful activities and was filed in the application for the preservation order. ‘Schalkwyk’s affidavit deals with both the facts as well as the subject matter of this, application. | refer this honourable court to paragraphs paragraph 16 to 44, on paginated pages 54 to 80, of Schalkwyk’s affidavit, which deals with the property as the proceeds of unlawful activities. As stated earlier, in light of McKinsey’s unequivocal admission in their Section 39(5) affidavit to the effect that it would not retain the property received from Eskom where there was non-compliance with procurement laws, it reasons that they cannot legitimately oppose the granting of a forfeiture order THE PROPERTY IS THE PROCEEDS OF UNLAWFUL ACTIVITIES. 48 43 50 The provisions the POCA, in particular, section 48(1) provides that if the preservation order is in force, the applicant may apply to this honourable court for an order forfeiting to the state any property that is subject to the preservation order. | submit that the evidence reasonably and rationally demonstrates that the property is proceeds of unlawful activity. | further submit that is evident that the First Respondent, being the recipient of the substantial portion of the entire payment, has come to the realisation that it was not lawfully entitled to the said payment, hence the attempt at settlement. | refer to paragraph 44 of Schalkwyk’s affidavit in the preservation application, and the statement of the First Respondent's senior partner, one David Robert Fine (Fino). As is evident from the statement Fine makes an acknowledgement, amongst others, that the purported contract that gave rise to the payment is invalid 1 s W » and further makes an undertaking that the First Respondent would not benefit from an invalid contract. Fine further stated that the First Respondent has agreed to repay the money to South Africa. This is, | submit, an acknowledgement that the funds constitute the proceeds of unlawful activities. Whether McKinsey was a party to such activities or not is irrelevant to this application. CONCLUSION 51 For the reasons set above, | submit that the factual and legal requirements for the granting of an order forfeiting the property to the State in terms of Section 50 of the POCA have been met, and humbly pray that this honourable court grant an order in terms of the draft order annexed to the notice of motion. Desionent | | | certify that on this 2S day of MAS 2018, the deponent signed | the affidavit in my presence and deciared that he knows and understands its contents, that he has no objection to taking the prescribed oath and that he considers the oath to be binding on his conscience. ~ o WEE Cape Commissioner of Oaths Full Namos: HoCNAHL( {(LELAM Meet Designation: CAP TA (AY Area: RSA address: PiomaT Bilie StAch | CeessWetle 0A SUE zTOV O27 IN THE HIGH COURT OF SOUTH AFI (GAUTENG DIVISION, PRETORIA) 14 Decembe, 2017 Coram: DMIE AT.
