Paul O'Sullivan: Wolves guarding sheep at new SAPS Kidnapping Unit; and 'it's personal' vendetta against State Capture law firm

Loading player...
Ace forensic investigator Paul O'Sullivan says South Africa's new specialist unit to counter a surge in kidnapping has all the signs of an inside job.

Also, in this interview, the no-nonsense crime fighter admits his mission to destroy legal firm Lawsons (ex Hogan Lovell SA; previously Routledge Modise) is personal. He spoke to Alec Hogg of BizNews. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
