Isabel dos Santos, daughter of ex-Angolan president, José Eduardo dos Santos, married to Sindika Dokolo thanked, on behalf of the family, “for the support” that has been given them, “crucial” to help withstand this pain. “It has been very difficult to accept this unexpected loss and your words fill our hearts”, acknowledged the businesswoman.
Sindika Dokolo, businessman and art collector, was married since 2002 to Isabel dos Santos, of whom she had four children.
He was born in 1972 in the former Zaire, present-day Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), son of banker Augustin Dokolo Sanu, and his second wife, the Danish Hanne Taabbel.
Critic of President Joseph Kabila’s nearly 20 years in the DRC, Sindika Dokolo spent about five years in exile due to the lawsuits brought against him in Kinshasa, returning to the country in May 2019, months after the presidential victory of opponent Félix Tshisekedi in December 2018.
The couple is suspected of having harmed the Angolan State in millions of dollars and was targeted in December 2019 for seizure of assets and stakes in companies, as determined by the Luanda Provincial Court.
Both have always denied the charges.
Sindika Dokolo died while practicing a form of diving, locally known as ‘al-hivari’, which does not use breathing equipment and is based on the exclusive use of the air in the lungs.
Dubai police meanwhile said they did not suspect any “criminal act” in the businessman’s death.
