South Africa's Gigaba calls for criminal probe into KPMG

Gigaba also called on all government departments to consider reviewing their work with KPMG to ensure "their audit processes have not been compromised".

KPMG dismissed its South African division's top management last week following an internal investigation which found that work it did for firms owned by the Gupta family, a trio of businessmen accused by a watchdog of improperly influencing the award of government contracts, "fell considerably short" of KPMG's standards.
