Former Eskom CEO Brian Molefe on Sunday would not confirm whether he had been invited to appear before to the Zondo commission of inquiry into state capture.
When contacted by News24, Molefe mumbled comment about the media house and then said the word "no".
When asked if this "no" was suggesting he had not been invited to appear before the state capture inquiry, the call was cut.
