Lavish Homes Left by Fleeing Guptas Up for Sale in South Africa

South Africa is selling off three multimillion rand mansions owned by the Gupta brothers, a trio of influential Indian-born businessmen at the center of a corruption scandal that triggered the country’s worst political and economic crisis since the end of Apartheid.

Atul, Rajesh and Ajay Gupta began buying the properties in Thursday’s auction in 2006. There, in Saxonwold, one of Johannesburg’s oldest and most affluent neighborhoods, they entertained top politicians and businessmen for at least a decade.
