  • Noseweek BREAKING NEWS: FISHROT STINK WAFTS INTO SOUTH AFRICA
    noseweek BREAKING NEWS: FISHROT STINK WAFTS INTO SOUTH AFRICA Noseweek Issue #242, 1st December 2019 The so-called Fishrot Files just released by Wikileaks reveal how Samherji, Iceland's fishing conglomerate, colluded with key players in the Namibian fishing industry to gain preferential access to that country's lucrative fishing grounds and fishing quotas. Icelandic citizen Johannes Stephansson worked for Samherji in Namibia where his job was allegedly to gain profitable rights in that country’s fishing industry, however much bribe money it took. Stephansson claims that over a four year period he paid – allegedly on the instructions of his employer – millions of dollars in bribes to high-ranking political figures in Namibia. These were reflected as consultancy fees in Samherji’s financials. In 2016 he decided to call it a day and resigned, but not before downloading more than 40 gigabytes of documents from his employer’s computers. He delivered these to WikiLeaks who handed them to the Doha-based news channel, Al Jazeera. Their investigative unit subsequently uncovered a network of fraud, corruption and money laundering with tentacles extending from Southern Africa to Iceland, Cyprus, Dubai and the Marshall Islands. "It's a blueprint of how foreign companies are stripping Africa's resources for their own benefit and leaving nothing behind," Stefansson says in Al Jazeera’s hour-long documentary, Anatomy of a Bribe: A deep dive into an underworld of corruption, that was broadcast worldwide on the 1st of December. In the programme, a journalist, posing as a representative of wealthy Chinese investors, attempted to obtain fishing quotas for a proposed joint venture with the Namibian fishing company, Omualu.
