Following KZN Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi’s startling revelations yesterday. We hear from the former Western Cape Provincial Police Commissioner about what this means for national security and policing in this country. During yesterday’s press briefing, Mkhwanazi accused the minister of police Senzo Mchunu of political interference in investigations and also revealed that prior its disbandment, the political killings task team had uncovered a syndicate, including senior politicians, senior police officials, metro police, officials in correctional services, prosecutors and other influential business people that is controlled by a drug cartel in Gauteng and KZN. However, it is also important to note that Minister Mchunu has denied Mkhwanazi’s claims, saying that all the statements made by Mkhwanazi require an urgent, thorough and transparent investigation, on a proper platform.
