“He’s a criminal himself”: Explosive claims rock Madlanga Commission

Loading player...
The Madlanga Commission heard jaw-dropping testimony this week when accused tender tycoon Vusimuzi “Cat” Matlala claimed he gave suspended Deputy National Police Commissioner Shadrack Sibiya a R300,000 “wedding gift” for his son - in cash. A four-hour recording, played before the commission, captured Matlala telling investigators: “I withdrew about R500,000 and gave him R300,000 as a contribution for his son.” When pressed on his relationship with Sibiya, Matlala didn’t hold back: “He’s a criminal himself.” The evidence- recorded by “Witness C”, one of the detectives who arrested Matlala in May is expected to be made public soon. Phemelo speaks to Kaya News Reporter Keneiloe Huma who has been following proceedings.
