KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi retracts claim that businessman Vusimuzi Matlala sent money to a bank account linked to former police minister Bheki Cele, attributing it to a forensic cellphone data analysis error. Despite dropping this allegation, Mkhwanazi stands by concerns over political meddling and corruption in the police force, citing close ties between Cele and Matlala, and political interference in crime probes. He urges focus on solid evidence moving forward.
