MADLANGA COMMISSION: Matlala claims Fannie Nkosi collected cash for Sibiya, but refuses to name names
Vusimuzi ‘Cat’ Matlala said he never paid money to suspended deputy police chief Shadrack Sibiya, but claimed Sergeant Fannie Nkosi collected money from people in Gauteng on Sibiya’s behalf.
Vusimuzi "Cat" Matlala testified before the Madlanga Commission that he never paid any money to suspended deputy police chief Shadrack Sibiya. However, Matlala claimed that Sergeant Fannie Nkosi collected money from people in Gauteng on behalf of Sibiya. Matlala faced intense questioning at the commission about his April 2025 meeting with KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi.
During the meeting, Mkhwanazi asked Matlala if Sibiya was collecting money from individuals in Gauteng. Matlala acknowledged that Sibiya was collecting money but refused to disclose the names of those allegedly making payments, asserting his right against self-incrimination and maintaining it as part of his defense in criminal trials. Matlala mentioned that a "middleman" named Sergeant Nkosi was responsible for collecting the money.
