Madlanga Commission: Khumalo Exposes Sibiya's Alleged Bribe Network (2025)

The Madlanga Commission has revealed a shocking revelation about the alleged involvement of suspended Deputy Police Commissioner, Lt-Gen. Shadrack Sibiya, in a bribery scandal. According to Lt-Gen. Dumisani Khumalo, the head of Crime Intelligence, Sibiya used one of his subordinates, Sergeant F. Nkosi, to collect bribe money from criminal cartels and notorious underworld figures. Khumalo's testimony was supported by CCTV footage and photographs showing Nkosi visiting the home of murder-accused businessman Katiso "KT" Molefe on November 27 last year. The footage shows Nkosi arriving shortly after 4 pm, spending less than ten minutes inside, and leaving with a large white paper bag while Molefe walked him to his official state vehicle, a white BMW. Khumalo suggested that Nkosi was a go-to man for both Sibiya and criminals, and that he regularly collected money from cartel members for Sibiya. The witness further claimed that Nkosi handled bribe payments from both Molefe and another alleged tender tycoon, Vusimuzi "Cat" Matlala, who is facing a string of corruption and racketeering charges. According to the witness, Matlala lavished Sibiya with 'gifts including 20 impalas and millions in cash'. The alleged payment chain took a dramatic turn when Molefe was arrested in a joint takedown operation by the GCIOPS and PKTT units, just ten days after Nkosi visited Molefe's property. This operation was marred by interference from members of the Hawks. Khumalo's testimony has raised serious questions about the involvement of senior police officers in criminal activities, and has sparked a debate about the need for further investigation and accountability. But here's where it gets controversial... The Hawks, who are supposed to be the country's top crime-fighting unit, have been accused of interfering in the operation, raising questions about their role in the scandal. And this is the part most people miss... The Madlanga Commission has also revealed that investigators are now analyzing Matlala's multiple bank accounts to trace the cash movements linked to these transactions. The commission's evidence bundle suggests that Sibiya received millions in cash from Matlala over several months, with Nkosi allegedly acting as courier. The public is now left with many questions, and the need for further investigation and accountability is more urgent than ever.
