The Indian government reportedly says the Gupta family are not Indian citizens, but South African citizens, SABC News reports.
This after Home Affairs Minister Malusi Gigaba and his director-general, Mkuseli Apleni, last week said Atul and Rajesh were both naturalised SA citizens, but not their elder brother, Ajay, who is a fugitive.
According to the department, Atul was naturalised in November 2002 and Rajesh in July 2006. Ajay only holds a permanent residency permit.
It is unclear whether the government also doesn’t consider Ajay a citizen, as that would potentially leave him without a country.
