Ajay Gupta's warrant of arrest not related to Estina case
The Hawks say the warrant of arrest for Ajay Gupta is not related to its Estina Diary Project probe.
At a media briefing earlier - Acting Hawks head General Yolisa Matakata said Gupta was being sought for a different corruption matter.
"The warrant of arrest against Mr. Ajay Gupta is on an unrelated case of corruption and is still active until it is executed. At the moment, we are liasing with his lawyers," Matakata says.
Ajay Gupta is considered a fugitive.
