Madlanga Inquiry | Witness S to testify about Crime Intelligence role
Witness S to testify about undercover Crime Intelligence operations in which he was involved.
The Madlanga Commission of Inquiry resumes operations at the Bridgette Mabandla Justice College in Pretoria on Wednesday. The focus of the session is Witness S, who is anticipated to provide testimony regarding undercover Crime Intelligence operations. Witness S, now serving as an officer, was instrumental in gathering intelligence on an organized criminal syndicate believed to have infiltrated the South African Police Service (SAPS).
The commission's evidence leaders have submitted a request to have Witness S's testimony held in camera due to confidentiality concerns. This application aims to keep the proceedings, transcripts, recordings, and documents confidential. Members of the media were provided with a 72-hour window to oppose the request after it was filed last week.
The inquiry is gearing up to hear evidence from witnesses in closed settings over the forthcoming days.
