Police Minister Will Continue to Attends Parliament, Because He Was Not Suspended, Says Mbalula

The African National Congress (ANC) has dismissed speculation that Police Minister Senzo Mchunu will be removed from his parliamentary duties, clarifying that he has not been suspended.

ANC Secretary General Fikile Mbalula confirmed at a Tuesday briefing in Luthuli House that Mchunu will continue attending Parliament. “The Minister of Police has not been suspended and remains part of the legislative process,” Mbalula stated.

Allegations of Political Interference in Police Work

The controversy stems from accusations by KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Lt-Gen Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, who claimed Mchunu interfered in criminal investigations. Mkhwanazi alleged that the disbanding of the Political Killings Task Team hindered probes into politically linked criminal syndicates.

In response, President Cyril Ramaphosa placed Mchunu on “special leave” on July 13, 2025, and appointed law professor Firoz Cachalia as Acting Police Minister. This move precedes a judicial commission of inquiry into corruption within the security cluster.

ANC Insists on Accountability but Rejects Suspension

Mbalula stressed that Mchunu’s leave does not equate to suspension and that Parliament retains its oversight role. He expressed confidence that Mchunu would address the allegations directly with ANC leadership.

“The ANC does not run government, but we demand accountability when misconduct is alleged,” Mbalula said. He reiterated the party’s stance that members accused of wrongdoing must step aside, in line with the ANC’s renewal framework.

Opposition Criticizes “Special Leave” as Inadequate

Critics argue that placing Mchunu on leave without suspension fails to prevent potential behind-the-scenes influence. Some opposition figures have labeled the move an “unconstitutional cover-up.”

Meanwhile, the commission of inquiry, led by Acting Deputy Chief Justice Mbuyiseli Madlanga, is expected to release initial findings within three to six months. The probe will examine allegations of corruption and political interference in police operations.

Mbalula emphasized that the ANC will not shield its members from consequences but maintained that due process must be followed.
