Africa-Press – South-Africa. The Parliamentary Ad Hoc committee investigating police corruption has resumed its hearings after a lengthy adjournment over concerns that Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi’s witness statement was not up to standard.
Members of the committee had objected to Mkhwanazi taking an oath, saying his statement was not satisfactory because it was not an original, but a supplementary statement.
Members also objected to the evidence leader Norman Arendse, including submissions Mkhwanazi made to the Madlanga Commission, saying they’re not a junior structure of the commission and want an original statement.
Mkhwanazi is giving testimony in the parliamentary inquiry two weeks after appearing before the Madlanga Commission to unpack allegations he made in July this year.
Committee chairperson, Soviet Lekganyane, addressed the committee after the adjournment before administering Mkhwanazi’s oath.
“The senior counsel has consulted with Mkhwanazi, and they are satisfied that the document that they are presenting before the Ad Hoc Committee is in accordance with our expectations.”
