Guptas may have paid for Lynne Brown PA’s stay at luxury Dubai hotel – report

Though she has denied sending an invoice for R32 000 to the Guptas for a four-day stay at five-star Oberoi Hotel, email evidence bearing the name of Kim Davids, personal assistant to Public Enterprises Minister Lynne Brown, was discovered by The Times.

In the email, an invoice is attached for the Guptas to settle the account. The bill also includes the cost of a chauffeur. Davids has not denied staying at the hotel, telling The Times she paid for her own accommodation there despite not being able to provide proof of this.

While Davids was in Dubai, Brown was in South Africa.

“In December 2015, I took leave and booked a holiday with my fiancé in Portugal. On the way‚ in transit in Dubai‚ I fell ill when I learned I was pregnant. We returned home‚ paying our own costs. I reject with contempt those unfounded allegations that cast doubt on my integrity.”

“There are no holy grails. The investigators must do their work.

“The department has been instructed to assist the probe by making documents and officials available to the investigation as required,” public enterprises spokesperson Colin Cruywagen said.
