A senior Crime Intelligence officer, Colonel Smanga Simelane, is facing internal investigation after reports emerged that businessman Vusimusi “Cat” Matlala funded his trip to the ANC’s January 8 celebrations in Cape Town.

Sources claim Matlala covered flights, accommodation, and other expenses for Simelane and five others to attend the ruling party’s anniversary event. The trip has raised ethical concerns, given Simelane’s sensitive position in police intelligence and Matlala’s history of controversial business dealings with government.

Police regulations prohibit officers from accepting gifts or sponsorships that could create conflicts of interest. A senior SAPS insider, speaking anonymously, warned that such arrangements risk “blurring the line between policing and political influence.”

Civil society groups, including the Helen Suzman Foundation, have demanded an independent probe, arguing the matter threatens police impartiality and national security. Neither Simelane nor Matlala has publicly responded to the allegations.

The incident revives concerns about improper ties between government officials, law enforcement, and private interests. As questions mount, pressure grows on police leadership to clarify whether security protocols were breached and what disciplinary steps may follow.

The SAPS has declined official comment, leaving unresolved whether this was an isolated case or symptomatic of deeper systemic issues in South Africa’s criminal justice system.
