A British national, Michael Lomas, has been handed over to South African authorities to face the music for his role in a massive corruption scandal.
A London judge has ruled that Lomas, a 77-year-old former Eskom contractor, will be extradited to South Africa to face 41 charges of corruption and the possibility of 15 years in prison.
But what about his mental health? Won’t he be at risk of a breakdown in the harsh conditions of a South African prison? Don’t be fooled. Lomas is a hardened criminal who has been living a life of luxury off the backs of the South African people. He’s had plenty of time to prepare for his inevitable fall from grace.
It’s only fitting that he will now rot in a South African dungeon for his crimes, surrounded by the very people he sought to exploit.
