The Madlanga Commission of Inquiry is set to reconvene on Tuesday to resume its investigation into the Johannesburg Metro Police Department (JMPD). The Commission, established by President Cyril Ramaphosa in September, is tasked with probing alleged political meddling, corruption, and criminal infiltration within the criminal justice system.

Michaels further noted that the Commission's public hearings, currently on day 173, will delve into the extent of the infiltration and any possible cooperation between the JMPD and criminal organizations during Tuesday's testimony.
