Police spokesperson Athlenda Mathe said Durban businessman Tariq Downes allegedly fabricated an ‘undercover agent’ story to avoid arrest after being caught with an unwrought gold bar. Senior officials Maj-Gen Feroz Khan and Hawks head Ebrahim Kadwa reportedly vouched for him, leading to his release. Investigators later confirmed he was not a police spy and should never have been freed. 📷: Kamogelo Moichela / IOL #AthlendaMathe #TariqDownes #FerozKhan #EbrahimKadwa #arrest

NPA spokesperson Kaizer Kganyago says the refusal by the three accused to unlock their personal cellphones seized by police could delay proceedings in the high-profile Kempton Park Magistrate’s Court case. The accused — Gauteng Hawks head Ebrahim Kadwa, Durban security company owner Tarig Downes, and Crime Intelligence Major-General Feroz Khan — are facing charges linked to the alleged unlawful possession of gold and illicit precious metals transactions connected to a 2021 incident at OR Tambo International Airport. Investigators are reportedly seeking access to the devices as part of ongoing corruption and criminal investigations. The matter continues to attract national attention due to the involvement of senior law enforcement officials and allegations of political interference raised during the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS | The State has asked the Kempton Park Magistrate’s Court to issue a warrant of arrest for General Feroz Khan after he failed to appear in court today. Khan, who is accused number two in the matter, was reportedly unable to attend court due to illness. His defence submitted medical records in support of his absence. Tensions escalated during heated exchanges over disclosure, with the defence accusing the State of paralysing its case by failing to provide the charge sheet. State prosecutor Advocate Nceba Ntelwa hit back, arguing that the delays were caused by Khan’s defence after he allegedly refused to unlock his cellphone for investigators. The dispute was subsequently taken on appeal. The case has been postponed to 27 November, pending a decision by the Supreme Court of Appeal. #madlangacommission

This is Imran Butt the Pakistani businessman the individual whom General Sibiya allegedly accused yesterday (Wednesday) at the Madlanga Commission of fabricating fraud and corruption allegations that led to his suspension from the police service. Imran Butt is described as a highly connected figure, with links spanning political circles and senior police officials. General Sibiya claimed that Imran Butt targeted him after he investigated him for alleged organised crime and human trafficking activities. At the time, in 2015, General Sibiya was serving within the Hawks. During that period, Imran Butt was reportedly a close associate of the then Hawks Head, General Lebeya. Imran Butt has stated that he is prepared to appear before the Madlanga Commission if granted the opportunity, asserting that he possesses evidence to support his claim that General Sibiya had demanded money from him. [ In this video, Imran Butt is seen speaking at the farewell event of General Lebeya, where he appears to make indirect remarks seemingly aimed at General Sibiya ]

HOW GENERAL IBB KILLED HIS CHILDHOOD FRIEND, MAMMAN VATSA FOR AN ALLEGED COUP The execution of Major General Mamman Vatsa and others involved in the alleged 1985 coup attempt is one of the most controversial and emotionally charged events in Nigeria’s military and political history. Here's a detailed narration: On December 31, 1983, Major General Muhammadu Buhari overthrew the civilian government of President Shehu Shagari. However, on August 27, 1985, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB) ousted Buhari in a palace coup and assumed power. Mamman Vatsa, a poet, writer, and senior army officer, was a childhood friend of IBB. They attended Government College Bida and joined the Nigerian Army together in 1962. Vatsa was also a member of the Supreme Military Council and served as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) under Buhari. The Alleged Coup Plot in December 1985, just a few months after Babangida became Head of State, military intelligence claimed to have uncovered a coup plot involving Vatsa and other senior officers. The coup was reportedly set to take place in December 1985, but the plot was said to have been foiled before it could be executed. Vatsa and others were arrested between December 17 and 23, 1985. After a secret military tribunal, chaired by Major General Charles Ndiomu, 17 officers were tried. Ten of them were sentenced to death and executed: 1. Major General Mamman Jiya Vatsa – Poet and former Minister of the FCT 2. Lieutenant Colonel Musa Bitiyong 3. Lieutenant Colonel Christian Oche 4. Lieutenant Colonel M.S. Bello 5. Lieutenant Colonel A.A. Aliyu 6. Major Daniel Bamidele 7. Major M. O. A. Akwashiki 8. Major John Bulus 9. Major Lawan Gwadabe (initially sentenced to death but later commuted) 10. Captain G. I. Bakut NB: Some of the names on the death list were later commuted, while others were executed. The executions took place by firing squad on March 5, 1986 at Kirikiri Prison in Lagos and other undisclosed locations. Despite appeals from prominent Nigerians and international communities, General Babangida upheld the verdicts. The trial and executions were shrouded in secrecy. Critics argued that the evidence presented was circumstantial and that the trial was rushed, with no option for appeal. Vatsa, especially, was seen as a victim of political paranoia, given his closeness to IBB. Many Nigerians believe that the coup may have been fabricated or exaggerated to eliminate perceived threats to Babangida’s rule. Some of the accused, like Major Daniel Bamidele, had earlier reported rumors of coup plans, only to be accused themselves. The killing of Mamman Vatsa remains a dark spot on Babangida’s legacy. Vatsa was not just a soldier; he was a celebrated literary figure and a man of intellect. His poetry and writings gained more attention after his death.

Witness I testified about a meeting at a hotel on 29 January 2025 with Brown Mogotsi and a Crime Intelligence member (whom he knew from the Scorpions). He said the CI member stated they "needed to fix things"—meaning Witness I should make a statement clearing Major General Khan at his disciplinary hearing. He refused, saying that would amount to perjury. The CI member then allegedly said: "You will get a bag and they will facilitate for you to get a promotion at work if you help Major General Khan." Witness I pretended to go along, asking them to bring the bag so he could arrest them for bribery—but they never brought it. He did not report the incident, fearing it would reach "the targeted people." He also testified that after the John Wick scene (where a suspect was fatally wounded), Brigadier Mokwena claimed the scene was "a hit" and wanted to consult with Mr. Matlala to "fix it"—meaning Matlala would pay something to keep a source quiet. Witness I believed this was an attempt to extort money from Matlala, noting that Brigadier Mkwena did not have top secret clearance at the time. #MadlangaCommission

🚨🚨 THE PLOT THICKENS: LET’S TALK ABOUT WITNESS “I”! 🚨🚨 Heish, family, please don’t even get me started on that IPID lady today, she completely exhausts me! She clearly only showed up to Madlanga’s kitchen to drink our purified water, waste our oxygen, and leave us parched for real answers. Let’s leave her right there.Because today? We need to talk about Witness “I”. This man walked into the commission, looked the country in the eye, and confirmed exactly what my gut has been telling me all along. Validation never felt so heavy.If you remember my initial theory, I told you that Major General Khan and General Kadwa swooped into that Aeroton drug bust scene like they owned it. But who was already on the ground doing the dirty work? Warrant Officer Magane, Chief Mashaba, Warrant Officer Phakula, and their informant, Mr. Tumelo Nku. Now, look... we already know that first crew had their own creative plans for those drugs, but let me keep my mouth zipped on that for a second... 🤐 Envy is a terrible thing, but greed? Greed is a monster.Generals Khan and Kadwa were visibly irritated to their very core. Why? Because they got completely outsmarted and beaten at their own game by junior amateurs! Imagine the bruised egos in that room. So, what did they do? They hijacked the scene, started bossing everyone around, and completely ignored Lt-Col Sebola an actual expert who actually knew what he was doing. Generals Khan and Kadwa were visibly irritated to their very core. Why? Because they got completely outsmarted and beaten at their own game by junior amateurs! Imagine the bruised egos in that room. So, what did they do? They hijacked the scene, started bossing everyone around, and completely ignored Lt-Col Sebola an actual expert who actually knew what he was doing. But it gets darker. Witness “I” dropped an absolute bombshell yesterday: ■ General Khan allegedly removed the truck driver from the scene and helped him vanish into thin ■ Witness “I” openly admitted that certain senior managers within SAPS are actively sleeping in the same bed as the drug cartels. This is exactly why his team keeps their operations under lock and key, you can’t trust the person sitting next to you! ■ When "Mama Sesla" (Advocate Sesi Baloyi SC) pressed him for a name, he didn't blink. He pointed straight at a 'Colonel Bok.' But wait, there's more! They tried to buy his silence. Witness “I” revealed he was offered a "handsome reward", packaged nicely as a promotion. If he just agreed to alter his statement and protect Khan. Let that sink in. The system tried to reward corruption, but he chose integrity.Witness “I” didn’t just take the stand; he came to bury the General and his entire cabal. He made it clear that intelligence reports show Major General Khan is notorious for overseeing drug syndicates flooding in from KZN. Honestly, I think the commissioners already know exactly who they are dealing with. They are patiently spinning a web, collecting every single receipt, and building a watertight case. The day General Khan finally steps into Madlanga’s kitchen, it will be the last time he ever sees the light of day. Because where he is going after this? Kukhala amadoda, only real men cry there! 🔒But as emotionally taxing as this betrayal of public trust is, we still have to be fair. We need to hear what he has to say for himself.

🔴A Zimbabwean businessman and socialite, Lawrence Madzinganyama, has sparked widespread public outrage in South Africa after being caught on camera threatening unarmed women after one of them rejected his unwanted sexual advances at the newly-opened Vlamo Restaurant in Sandton, Johannesburg. The dramatic incident, in which Madzinganyama threatened to kill the women and walk away, occurred against a backdrop of heightened fear and national grief over a gruesome string of murders targeting women in Gauteng, including the Kempton Park and Olifantsfontein areas. Police in South Africa have recovered nine bodies of women in a string of mysterious killings across Ekurhuleni, Johannesburg, including 28-year-old Zimbabwean national Gracious Nkomo whose body was found along the R21 in Kempton Park. The bodies were discovered in Kempton Park, Dawn Park, Olifantsfontein, Rhodesfield, and surrounding Ekurhuleni communities in Johannesburg, since July. The victims were women in their 20s or 30s, and many were found half-naked clothed with visible bruises and scars. Madzinganyama's aggressive threats against women unfolded at the upscale Vlamo Restaurant located at Sandton Gate along Winnie Mandela Drive, formerly William Nicol, horrifying hosts and guests alike. Madzinganyama was recorded shouting at a group of female patrons after he was rejected. Witnesses and social media reports show the altercation over his unwanted serial advances escalated rapidly, culminating in Madzinganyama boasting, "I'll put a bullet in all of you!" and "murder you" to the vulnerable women, demanding that he must be rejected politely. Following the uproar inside, Vlamo took swift action to eject the businessman from the premises. In a formal statement released subsequently, the restaurant condemned the menacing behaviour, emphasising that Madzinganyama does not work there and has no association with them, while expressing their disgust and commitment to ensuring a safe environment for guests. They said any form of gender-based hostility, intimidation and abuse would not be tolerated on their property. Despite his removal, video footage of the incident spread rapidly across social media and mainstream media platforms, igniting a massive wave of public anger, outrage and condemnation. The timing of Madzinganyama’s threats has amplified public anxiety due to an ongoing crisis of violent crime against women in South Africa. South Africa is currently grappling with a terrifying wave of femicide, prominently highlighted by the discovery of multiple bodies of women in and around Kempton Park and Olifantsfontein, Gauteng. The situation has grown so severe that high-profile figures, such as musical duo Major League DJZ, recently issued widespread public safety warnings advising women to avoid travelling alone in Johannesburg. The state of emergency prompted President Cyril Ramaphosa to issue an urgent directive to law enforcement, ordering that the investigations into the Kempton Park killings be prioritized without exception. Police have been completely seized with the issue and are investigating the murders to bring perpetrators to justice. In a society where statistics reveal a woman is murdered every 2.5 hours, Madzinganyama's brazen threats of gun violence are no longer treated as mere verbal arguments. Instead, the public views them as a dangerous continuation of Gender-Based Violence culture. The swift action by Vlamo Restaurant to banish the patron reflects a growing corporate responsibility where businesses are forced to actively protect vulnerable patrons from predatory or threatening behaviour, especially reflecting toxic masculinity sometimes rooted in abusive patriarchy and misogyny. Madzinganyama's aggression serves as a sobering reminder of how volatile the environment remains for women in South Africa. Verbal threats of violence and aggression mirror the very real, lethal dangers playing out in nearby neighbourhoods like Kempton Park.

🔴A Zimbabwean businessman and socialite, Lawrence Madzinganyama, has sparked widespread public outrage in South Africa after being caught on camera threatening unarmed women after one of them rejected his unwanted sexual advances at the newly-opened Vlamo Restaurant in Sandton, Johannesburg. The dramatic incident, in which Madzinganyama threatened to kill the women and walk away, occurred against a backdrop of heightened fear and national grief over a gruesome string of murders targeting women in Gauteng, including the Kempton Park and Olifantsfontein areas. Police in South Africa have recovered nine bodies of women in a string of mysterious killings across Ekurhuleni, Johannesburg, including 28-year-old Zimbabwean national Gracious Nkomo whose body was found along the R21 in Kempton Park. The bodies were discovered in Kempton Park, Dawn Park, Olifantsfontein, Rhodesfield, and surrounding Ekurhuleni communities in Johannesburg, since July. The victims were women in their 20s or 30s, and many were found half-naked clothed with visible bruises and scars. Madzinganyama's aggressive threats against women unfolded at the upscale Vlamo Restaurant located at Sandton Gate along Winnie Mandela Drive, formerly William Nicol, horrifying hosts and guests alike. Madzinganyama was recorded shouting at a group of female patrons after he was rejected. Witnesses and social media reports show the altercation over his unwanted serial advances escalated rapidly, culminating in Madzinganyama boasting, "I'll put a bullet in all of you!" and "murder you" to the vulnerable women, demanding that he must be rejected politely. Following the uproar inside, Vlamo took swift action to eject the businessman from the premises. In a formal statement released subsequently, the restaurant condemned the menacing behaviour, emphasising that Madzinganyama does not work there and has no association with them, while expressing their disgust and commitment to ensuring a safe environment for guests. They said any form of gender-based hostility, intimidation and abuse would not be tolerated on their property. Despite his removal, video footage of the incident spread rapidly across social media and mainstream media platforms, igniting a massive wave of public anger, outrage and condemnation.

💸 The Blueprint of State Capture: Why They Cared : The Madlanga Commission just dropped nuclear-grade receipts. Major-General Feroz Khan and tobacco tycoon Mo Sayed were allegedly running a shadow operation to buy total leverage over former Ekurhuleni City Manager, Imogen Mashazi. Here is the explosive breakdown. Imogen Mashazi who controlled a massive R50-billion municipal budget was treated to an extravagant R3.5M private jet shopping trip to London. The junket was bankrolled by controversial businessman Ze Nxumalo. But the real story is in the WhatsApp chats. Evidence leader Advocate Adila Hassim SC exposed logs showing Mo Sayed acting as a "luxury travel agent" for the heist. Sayed was forwarding Mashazi’s flight details, passport info, and immigration documents directly to Crime Intelligence’s General Khan. Why? It’s the ultimate blueprint of state capture. By tracking and funding her luxury travel data, the duo allegedly sought a stranglehold over Mashazi. The goal? Total control over who gets a slice of Ekurhuleni’s multi-billion-rand municipal tender pie. The corruption was immediate. Right after this 2022 London shopping spree, corporate entities linked to the flight's financial trail miraculously secured massive municipal diesel and supply contracts in Ekurhuleni. This isn't just about one trip, the entire house of cards is collapsing. Mashazi is already under fire for protecting suspended EMPD Deputy Chief Julius Mkhwanazi from corruption charges, all while living in a R60M Waterfall mansion linked to Edwin Sodi. Advocate Hassim is systematically dismantling this network of greed. She argued a R3.5M weekend trip demands a criminal inference: the benefactors expected massive gratification. The high life always comes with a receipt, and the state capture bill is due. ⚖️🔥 #MadlangaCommission #ProtectGeneralMkhwanazi #July6 #NhlanhlaMkhwanaziDay

Mullah Zaeef's Deception and the revelation of General Ehsan- too little too late? ​A recent video, posted by veteran journalist Tahir Khan sahab, has finally shed light on one of the most controversial diplomatic incidents of the post-9/11 era. The footage features a long-awaited statement from General Ehsan, the former Director-General of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), offering his first public account regarding the disposition of former Taliban Ambassador Mullah Abdul Salam Zaeef. ​General Ehsan's remarks constitute a bombshell disclosure, fundamentally challenging the established narrative. ▪️He revealed that Mullah Zaeef, while enjoying sanctuary in Pakistan, became a major source of friction for the Pakistani govt. ▪️For months - not for days or hours, but months, Pakistani officials, employed a mix of soft diplomacy and extreme persistence, trying to resolve the issue. As Pakistan withdrew their recognition of TTA govt, so legally, technically and ethically it was Zaeef's place to be and he has to vacate the premises of embassy. ▪️The General claims that Pakistani authorities repeatedly implored Zaeef, even to the point of a humiliating display of deference, to simply vacate his embassy residence and assume a low-profile existence as a normal Afghan expatriate anywhere within Pakistan’s territory. ▪️​Zaeef, however, was in non-compliance. Instead of accepting the state’s proposal, he continuously engaged with the international press, effectively using his position to conduct a media campaign that severely embarrassed and vexed the Pakistani government. ▪️This protracted standoff ultimately led to a resolution that contradicts the pervasive narrative of betrayal. ​The former DG ISI definitively stated that Pakistan's final action was to escort Zaeef to the Torkham border crossing, where he was formally handed over to the then existing Afghan authorities. ▪️General Ehsan's key takeaway is unambiguous: Pakistan never carried out a rendition of Mullah Zaeef to the United States. ▪️This refutes the long-held claim of a Pakistani betrayal, propagated widely by Zaeef and his sympathetic elements. ▪️​Adding to the complexity, the book detailing Zaeef’s version of events was reportedly first published in India before achieving wider global circulation. ▪️It is noted that Zaeef's credibility is suspect, as he was reportedly not even fully accepted by the Afghan Taliban upon his eventual return to Afghanistan, yet his operational narrative continues to be leveraged by such entities and certain domestic political and media constituencies to undermine Pakistan's state standing and stature. ▪️​ How there is now a grievance from General Ehsan and the Pakistani officialdom. If this wasn't a strategic communication failure, then what was? Given that the factual matrix of the case was known for nearly a quarter of a century, why was the official counter-narrative wasn't thrown out? ▪️This prolonged information vacuum allowed a false story to be successfully weaponized, contributing to the radicalization of youth and the fomenting of insurgency. This is on us - that we failed to reveal such details and now paying the price or established falsehood as a gospel of truth.
