Ramokgopa welcomes Lomas extradition

JOHANNESBURG - Fugitive Michael Lomas has landed back in the country after being extradited from the United Kingdom.

Electricity and Energy Minister Kgosientsho Ramokgopa says this shows government's commitment to pursuing those implicated in corruption at Eskom.

The case against Lomas has been postponed to 27 September.

He made a brief appearance at the Palm Ridge Magistrate's Court after being extradited.

The former contractor at Eskom is wanted in connection with a fraud and corruption case connected to the building of the Kusile Power Station.

Lomas has been remanded in custody, until his next appearance.
