Barry Sergeant: Roger Kebble suicide - he was trying to make a statement

Loading player...
In this Biznews Special Podcast, Barry Sergeant shares his encyclopedic knowledge of the family which once ruled South Africa's mining roost, to explain what was behind the suicide two days ago of family patriarch Roger Kebble. Sergeant, an author who was previously an investment analyst and investigative journalist, first met the family almost two decades back when they sued him after exposing their West African mining scam. He tells Alec Hogg the fascinating Kebble story, including a macabre fact that father and son died in the same Mercedes Benz. Sergeant is convinced that Roger Kebble wanted to make a statement about as yet unexposed forces that engineered his son's death in 2005. Learn more about your ad choices.
