The Moti Group is attempting to stop the publication of more damaging articles in amaBhungane's #MotiFiles series.
The Moti Group approached the Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg on Tuesday, requesting an urgent interdict and demanding the immediate return of thousands of"leaked" documents. In an affidavit, former Treasury director-general Dondo Mogajane – now the chief executive of the Moti Group – told the court that"in the wrong hands, [the documents] will cause the Moti Group reputational damage if a false narrative based on the stolen documents is advanced, which is currently the case".
Van Niekerk was taken to Johannesburg by police from Sandton police station, despite a court order preventing his removal. He was released two days later when a magistrate struck the case from the roll following a decision by the KwaZulu-Natal High Court in Durban that set aside the arrest warrant. The sender wrote that they had"received an email from an anonymous account" containing attachments"which appear to include internal company emails between Mr Sam Sole and [amaBhungane reporter] Mr Micah Reddy and yourself".
The phone number left by Botes was linked to a Chrisna-Mari Els, who appears to have a legal qualification and was recently cited online as an employee of a marketing company.
