Deputy President Paul Mashatile has denied allegations made by police sergeant Fannie Nkosi that he met with alleged criminal kingpin Vusimuzi 'Cat' Matlala. Nkosi's claims surfaced during his testimony at the Madlanga Commission, sparking controversy and raising questions about potential links between politicians and underworld figures.
Mashatile's camp has dismissed the allegations as unfounded and politically motivated, calling for evidence to support the claims. The controversy is reminiscent of previous scandals, including the CR17 debacle, and has sparked concerns about corruption and state capture within the ANC ¹.
The allegations are part of a broader investigation into Matlala's dealings, including his alleged involvement in securing state tenders and funding ANC events. Matlala's connections to senior officials, including Colonel Smangaliso Simelane, have also come under scrutiny.
