Loading player...
President Cyril Ramaphosa has announced that a judicial commission of inquiry will probe the allegations that KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi made against Police Minister Senzo Mchunu. Spies, prosecutors, magistrates and police officers. These are among the figures a judicial commission of inquiry will focus on following an unprecedented policing scandal that has exposed rival factions in South Africa’s law enforcement arena. President Cyril Ramaphosa announced the creation of the commission of inquiry during an address to the nation. His speech came a week after KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi made a series of astounding accusations about fellow police officers and other state officials. Phemelo gets reaction from ActionSA Leader Herman Mashaba, EFF MP Mazwi Blose and the Chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Police, Ian Cameron.
