Suspended MP Fadiel Adams back at Madlanga Commission amid laptop excuse

Suspended MP Fadiel Adams is set to return to the Madlanga Commission on Wednesday to face questions regarding allegations of mishandling classified crime intelligence documents and systemic corruption within the criminal justice system. Adams claimed that a malfunctioning laptop prevented him from attending a previous testimony, but Parliament has pushed back against this claim.

He is also expected to provide details and evidence on his claims of systemic corruption and has opened three criminal cases based on the Crime Intelligence information he had accessed. Adams is currently facing charges of fraud and defeating the administration of justice in a case in the Pinetown Magistrate’s Court, where he faces allegations of misrepresenting himself to gain access to Westville Prison and secretly interviewing inmates linked to the 2017 murder of former ANC Youth League Secretary Sindiso Magaqa.
