EFF’s Julius Malema Provided Political Protection for Feroz Khan, Madlanga Commission Investigator Reveals

The commission says his evidence is crucial and may run for several days as it probes allegations against him and other SAPS officers.

  • Major-General Feroz Khan, a senior Crime Intelligence officer, is scheduled to testify before the Madlanga Commission on July 1. He will remain under examination for several days as the inquiry probes serious allegations against him.
  • Khan recently abandoned multiple urgent court applications seeking to block the commission's access to electronic devices seized on May 10. These legal challenges aimed to prevent investigators from analyzing data retrieved from his phones and iPad.
  • Commission investigator Tshepo Nyatlo confirmed that investigators now possess data from Khan's devices, obtained via the South African Police Service . This material is crucial for the inquiry's investigation into alleged corruption and institutional interference.
  • Allegations linking Khan to organized crime networks include collusion with Carnilinx executive Mohamed Sayed and Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema. Claims involve potential tender manipulation and interference in police investigations.
  • Testimony from the senior officer is expected to address broader concerns regarding whether criminal syndicates have exerted influence over state institutions. Khan will have the opportunity to address information and allegations before the Madlanga Commission.
