The Madlanga Commission continues its inquiry today, examining allegations of misconduct and political interference within South Africa’s criminal justice system. Recent testimony has revealed that sensitive police documents, including a letter disbanding a key investigative unit, were circulated through unofficial channels before their official release.
Evidence presented shows businessman Brown Mogotsi received the letter disbanding the Political Killings Task Team before it was officially distributed. The commission is also reviewing evidence about 121 political murder dockets that were reportedly left untouched for weeks after being transferred for auditing.
In related developments, the City of Ekurhuleni has announced internal reforms and investigations into its metro police department following evidence presented to the commission. The inquiry continues to examine relationships between senior police officials, municipal authorities, and business figures.
