The board of directors says it signed-off on the decision to liquidate a company worth billions of rand without having properly read what exactly it is they were signing.

PRETORIA – Bosasa’s board says it has made a big mistake after taking poor advice and not properly reading documents before signing them.

The decision was taken last month after the company's banks announced they would close their accounts, citing reputational risk. The board further claims that they were under pressure and the attorney they'd hired didn't fully explain what it was they were signing, adding he just placed documents in front of them and showed them were to make their mark.
