Gauteng traffic police chief denied any interference and stated they were assisting the Hawks
Former police commissioner Riah Phiyega has denied ever meeting alleged crime boss Vusimuzi “Cat” Matlala after explosive recordings played before the Madlanga commission
Cele said he had tried to meet his successor to discuss the issue after leaving office, but his calls went unanswered
The anonymous witness said frequent interference in the investigation of murder suspect Katiso Molefe showed how far his influence reached in the police service
The witness, who has requested anonymity, told the Madlanga commission he was invited to parties with senior officials who wanted to influence his investigation of the Armand Swart murder case
