MADLANGA COMMISSION: Taxi boss Oupa Sindane linked to extortion racket and leaked police intelligence

The Madlanga Commission has found taxi boss Oupa Sindane at the centre of an alleged extortion racket, police information leaks, and intelligence linked to Cat Matlala. An Ekurhuleni Metro Police Department (EMPD) letter implicating Vusimuzi “Cat” Matlala's alleged use of blue lights was sent to Sindane's phone, according to the commission.

The document is part of a collection of cellphone records and financial evidence surrounding Sindane, who faces charges of extortion and money laundering in Kwaggafontein Magistrates' Court. Sindane, Joe "Ferrari" Sibanyoni, and two others are also accused of extortion and money laundering.
