New witness expected to testify at Madlanga Inquiry
The Madlanga Commission of Inquiry will continue its hearings on Thursday morning, focusing on alleged hit squads and police involvement in KwaZulu-Natal. A new witness, identified as Witness P, is expected to take the stand. This police officer has applied to have his testimony heard in camera on Friday, opting for a closed-door session without the presence of media or the public.
According to his application, Witness P's evidence pertains to matters uncovered during a covert counterintelligence operation targeting an organized drug gang. Scheduled to testify on the same day as North-West businessman Sulieman Carrim, Witness P's testimony is not expected to impact matters relating to Carrim. Commission spokesperson Jeremy Michaels has confirmed this distinction.
Additionally, video footage shows the commission demanding an independent medical examination for Carrim.
