KZN dockets sent to Madlanga Commission
Updated | By Bulletin
With key dockets taken from the KZN Political Killings Task Team now being sent to the Madlanga Commission, there are hopes proceedings will kick off soon.
The claims were made by KZN's police chief Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi.
The hearings were scheduled to begin this week, but procurement delays meant critical infrastructure was not ready, forcing a postponement.
Deputy President, Paul Mashatile says he is confident that the process will continue.
"We are concerned about the delays but I'm sure they will be sorted out, they needed to make proper arrangements for venues and so on, but the process will proceed."
At the same time, acting Police Minister Firoz Cachalia and National Police
Commissioner Fannie Masemola agreed to redirect 121 dockets to the commission.

The two had earlier disagreed with Masemola ordering that they be returned to
KZN.
Mkhwanazi alleges the dockets were taken by suspended Deputy Commissioner
Shadrack Sibiya.
It's believed he was acting on instructions from suspended Police Minister
Senzo Mchunu.
