It kind of does make sense tbh - most people are in agreement that the group is fundamentally undervalued - debs being worth pretty much what the group mcap is....
Look at it this way - the company doesn't need the cash, the company needs the shares to win an egm vote - what is the quickest and cheapest way to gain 10 percent voting rights (whilst also lowering your opponents power)?? A cash raise for new shares!
Imagine trying to buy 120 million shares on the open market in 4 weeks, when there's probably about 300 available...
No doubt the family will take part in this to further bolster investor appetite...
