“As for Phala Phala, it is not going to be switched under the couch. The NPA might believe that there is no prima facie case, but we believe there is a prima facie case.

“Where the money came from, that’s another matter. Where the money went to, that’s another matter. How do they try to follow and get that money back, that’s another matter.
