THE GATHERING 2026: ‘No one is immune’ — NPA head vows criminal justice reset after Madlanga revelations

At the Madlanga Commission, allegations of corruption in South Africa's criminal justice system have continued to surface. NPA chief Andy Mothibi addressed the NPA's efforts to address the issues at the Daily Maverick's The Gathering event in Cape Town.
