]]> Another British  company’s been dragged into South Africa’s scandal pool.

This time it’s law firm Hogan Lovells accused of helping hide state corruption and complicity in attempts to  loot and rob the taxpayer.

Ends intro

South African-born Lord Hain says Hogan Lovells, hired to probe corruption in SARS, actually  engaged in a fatally flawed whitewash of graft in South Africa.

Former  finance minister Pravin Gordhan says Hogan Lovell back pedaled on its Investigation into former SARS executive and alleged money launderer Jonas Makwakwa.

Hain’s asking the British regulator to discipline Hogan Lovell who deny any wrongdoing.

Hain says the British firm helped the Guptas gain influence in SARS.

He maintains  Hogan Lovell’s is either a willing gullible or a malevolent accomplice.
