The South African ambassador to the Netherlands, Bruce Koloane, allegedly approached the Gupta family to act as guarantor for a golf tournament that he arranged for his 20th wedding anniversary.
Koloane came into the spotlight after giving permission as head of the government’s protocol section in 2013 for the Guptas airplane to land on Waterkloof Air Force Base.

It is not clear whether he got the sponsorship, but the engagement with the Gupta brothers and Zuma speaks volumes.
