Oil Workers Detained in Equatorial Guinea Return to South Africa
South African contractors jailed in Equatorial Guinea after working in the country's offshore oil fields returned home on Saturday following more than two years of detention.
Peter Huxham and Frik Potgieter, both South African nationals, were arrested on drug-trafficking charges in February 2023, days after a South African court ordered the seizure of one of Equatorial Guinean Vice President Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue's yachts. The two incidents were linked, Bloomberg reported in April last year.
