Of course, a R2-bn payoff with amnesty attached would solve the current Mexican stand-off situation in which (I have a shrewd idea) No 1 is telling a whole whack of his comrades, "You shop me; I shop you". As head of MK intelligence (oxymoron?), he very likely has some serious dirt on some seriously senior ANC "leaders".

R2-bn makes this little inconvenience go away.

Or do I sound like a conspiracy theorist?
