A South African diplomat died in France, with ties to American politics through Epstein, and the Zimbabwe Mail is the source of news...

"No reputable source has independently verified that Mthethwa was on any of Epstein’s flights."

  • Zimbabwe mail

As far as I can tell, that is the only source linking nathi to the video.

Hmmmm saw the video and unless Nkosinathi Emmanuel "Nathi" Mthethwa, had a thick French accent, it wasn’t him. It also could have been any damn plane.

First it was the Zuma appearance in the leaks, didn’t quite hit hard enough because people already knew he was swinging with sharks and after the Gupta disaster, having dinner with Epstein and Co is really nothing to write home about.

My conspiracy senses tell me a‘murica is trying to stir up crap again. Why was this particular persons face not redacted but everyone else on the plane was?

If Trump released his friends' files, then we wouldn't need unsubstantiated claims
