MADLANGA COMMISSION: Feroz Khan’s commission testimony postponed after uncle murdered
Just before then Crime Intelligence deputy Feroz Khan was meant to testify before the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry earlier this year, he was wounded in a shooting. Now, Khan’s uncle has been killed on the eve of Khan’s anticipated testimony, which, as a result, has again been postponed.
The Madlanga Commission of Inquiry has postponed Feroz Khan's testimony after his uncle, Preggy Padayachee, was killed in a shooting on the R21 towards OR Tambo International Airport on Monday evening. The driver of the vehicle was killed, while Padayachee's friend was wounded. Khan's uncle had previously received threats and was the nephew by marriage of Khan, who is a former police Major General.
Khan had been scheduled to testify remotely and in camera due to sensitive information, but his uncle's death prevented the proceedings from happening as planned. The Madlanga Commission will now determine a new date for Khan's testimony.
