Show Notes
Police Minister Senzo Mchunu, currently on special leave, is demanding evidence from KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi to support serious allegations against him. Mchunu denies any wrongdoing, accusing Mkhwanazi of lacking evidence and acting as both accuser and investigator. The tension arises from Mkhwanazis statements at the Madlanga Commission, where he alleged Mchunu was involved in pressuring a prisoner into a fake affidavit and had ties to a criminal group. The disbanding of the Political Killings Task Team in 2024 also adds to the controversy. Mchunus supporters have held national prayer events in his name, while Mkhwanazis contract was recently extended. Mchunu is considering writing to his ANC party to reverse his voluntary step-aside and return to duties, as the public clash highlights deep rifts in South Africas police leadership.
