SIU wins R85m SAA-Flyfofa lease case

The Special Investigating Unit has successfully secured a Special Tribunal judgment, setting aside the R85-million contract extension between South African Airways and Flyfofa Airways.

The tribunal reviewed and cancelled SAA's 2019 decision to extend a dry-lease agreement for a Boeing 737-300.

Investigators revealed that SAA continued to pay Flyfofa millions, even though the aircraft was grounded for operational issues during the contract period.

The tribunal has now ordered Flyfofa to provide a detailed financial statement within 30 days, and return all profits made from the unlawful deal.
