\n\t\tThe Madlanga Commission of Inquiry completed phase one of its work in December, with at least two more phases still to come.\n\t<\/p>\n
The Madlanga Commission of Inquiry will resume its work in late January, just over four months since the first hearing in mid-September.<\/p>\n
A continuation date has been set for 26 January, more than six months after KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) Police Commission Lieutenant-General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi rocked South Africa\u2019s security cluster.<\/p>\n
Mkhwanazi\u2019s allegations, and those of subsequent witnesses, have been compiled in an interim report submitted to President Cyril Ramaphosa; however, the commission is only a third of the way through its work.<\/p>\n
Madlanga Commission phases <\/p>\n
What transpired before the December break was phase one of the commission, which laid the \u201cfactual foundation\u201d of Mkhwanazi\u2019s allegations.<\/p>\n
Commission spokesperson Jeremy Michaels explained that phase one was intended to allow witnesses to present evidence supporting Mkhwanazi\u2019s allegations.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs part of its remaining work, dozens of witnesses are due to appear before the commission over the next few months,\u201d Michaels stated yesterday.<\/p>\n
\u201cHowever, the evidence was not subjected to testing and questioning in phase one.<\/p>\n
\u201cPhase two provides persons implicated in phase one an opportunity to respond to the allegations made against them and, where applicable, to make their own allegations,\u201d he clarified.<\/p>\n
