Adams returns to witness stand at Madlanga Commission

Fadiel Adams is being asked about investigations into seven senior Crime Intelligence officials.

National Coloured Congress MP Fadiel Adams is set to return to the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry in Pretoria on Thursday. Adams began testifying on Wednesday, and now faces further probing of his involvement in the investigation of Crime Intelligence officials, his management of classified information and the roots of his allegations.

He has become a central figure in the commission’s proceedings after submitting a Section 27 affidavit, which the IDAC utilized to probe corruption allegations in Crime Intelligence. The inquiry is anticipated to continue examining the Section 27 affidavit. During Wednesday’s testimony, Adams described KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi as "provocative" and labeled him as an apartheid-era police officer.

He expressed his disagreement with Mkhwanazi's comments in Parliament concerning former MK cadres serving in the SAPS, deeming them offensive due to the sacrifices of struggle veterans who joined the police after democracy.
