MADLANGA COMMISSION ANNIVERSARY: Mkhwanazi’s ‘too grave to contemplate’ allegations gain grim weight

Madlanga's Commission, initiated one year ago, now presents compelling evidence of criminal activity within South Africa's criminal justice system and the potential infiltration of state institutions by criminal networks. The Commission, chaired by Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, who first testified on September 17, 2025, alleged that corrupt networks existed within the police force.
