Police are working closely with the Madlanga Commission to assess security threats after the reported suicide of Wiandre Pretorius, spokesperson Athlenda Mathe said
The commission heard testimony from police officials who regularly sent sensitive information to Matlala and relayed his messages to senior officials
Wiandre Pretorius was shot at 16 times and walked away unharmed by what police believe was a targeted hit after he was implicated at the Madlanga Commission
Advocate Moipone Noko said she supported and later took over the prosecution led by Andrew Chauke in the high-profile Cato Manor case
KZN police say Lesetja Senona arrived at the office on Saturday and exhibited strange behaviour, prompting security personnel to seize his devices
The outgoing national director of public prosecutions said her successor should fight for more institutional independence and for competitive salaries to attract high profile advocates
Senona this week admitted to being close friends with businessman and alleged cartel leader Vusimuzi ‘Cat’ Matlala but denied any involvement in his business activities
Evidence leaders compelled to ask for a postponement
Lesetja Senoma testified that he was not aware of Matlala’s criminal history although they were close, adding that he did not do background checks on friends
Lesetja Sesona said the KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner sent the messages before his appearance in front of the Madlanga commission
