flag A South African commission begins hearings to investigate corruption and criminal links in the justice system, with the first witness set to testify.

flag The Madlanga Commission of Inquiry, established by President Cyril Ramaphosa, began public hearings in Pretoria to investigate allegations of corruption, political interference, and criminal syndicate infiltration in South Africa’s justice system and law enforcement. flag KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi is set to testify as the first witness, detailing claims of a powerful criminal network linked to state officials and intelligence services. flag The commission, chaired by retired judge Mbuyiseli Madlanga, aims to determine whether senior figures aided or ignored the syndicate, with findings expected in interim reports and a final report to the president. flag Despite legal challenges from the MK Party questioning the commission’s legitimacy, the inquiry proceeds with tight security and limited public access. flag The probe, budgeted at over R147 million, seeks to restore trust in the justice system without disrupting ongoing police operations.
