in 2016, the public protector, thuli madonsela, investigated the gupta family scandal after receiving a formal complaint from a catholic priest, called father stanslaus muyebe. the state of capture report released by the public protector in 2016 reports on the dangers of state capture in the case of south africa. the 355 page document reports mr. zuma's preferential treatment of the gupta family and the involvement of jacob zuma's son and the gupta family. the allegations reported on include the gupta family's involvement in the appointments and removals of members of the south african cabinet, the unlawful awarding of state contracts to gupta linked companies or persons, the banks’ preferential treatment of gupta owned companies, and zuma's conflict of interest concerning his position and business dealings. the gupta brothers, who have been major players in south african business for over a decade, began growing their relationship with former president jacob zuma in 2003 as he occupied the office of deputy president. since 2003, both parties have benefited from an understanding in which the gupta family financed the zuma family while president zuma appointed friendly officials and awarded lucrative state contracts to the gupta empire. south african authorities are seeking to recover up to us$4.07 billion lost to gupta's deals. jacob zuma's son, duduzane, and gloria ngeme zuma, one of mr. zuma's wives, received large transfers and monthly salaries for positions held at one of the gupta firms.
