Investigating Masemola in Medicare24 tender was concerning: Ramsamy
Commission has heard that Masemola was allegedly being targeted in the Medicare 24 investigation
State Advocate Drushantha Ramsamy testified before the Madlanga Commission that her concerns over the investigation into Medicare24 were concerning. She specifically mentioned that investigators were instructed to search electronic devices for possible links between suspended National Police Commissioner General Fannie Masemola and Vusimuzi "Cat" Matlala, an accused attempted murder suspect.
Despite IDAC prosecutors finding no evidence linking Masemola to the case and the investigation not identifying him as a suspect, there was a clear indication that Masemola was being targeted by any means necessary. Ramsamy found the instructions given by Advocate Johnson on that day to be unacceptable and not in line with the rules.
The Madlanga Commission has adjourned to allow Witness P to testify behind closed doors about a clandestine counter-intelligence operation linked to a drug gang in Durban.
