The commission said Pretorius' evidence would focus on the Gupta-owned newspaper, The New Age.

On Monday, former Free State agricultural department head Peter Thabethe was questioned about why he allowed R106m to be paid to Gupta-linked company Estina in 2016. 

The payment was made when the province terminated its partnership with Estina over a controversial dairy project in Vrede.
