‘I hate Brown Mogotsi’: Cat Matlala unloads on alleged political fixer at Madlanga Commission
Matlala said he only later discovered, after meeting former police minister Bheki Cele, that Mogotsi was not an official from the minister’s office.
Alleged underworld figure Vusimuzi "Cat" Matlala testified before the Madlanga Commission that he now despises businessman and alleged political fixer Brown Mogotsi. Matlala made the remarks during his testimony on Monday. According to Matlala, Mogotsi caused significant problems for him following a police raid on his home in December 2024.
The two stopped communicating after Matlala's arrest. Matlala alleged that Mogotsi contacted him two days after the raid, impersonating an official from the police minister's office, and claiming he could help him file a complaint against the police. Matlala stated that he gave Mogotsi R20,000, only to later discover that the person claiming to be from the police minister's office was not actually an official.
