Purpose of the Madlanga Commission
President Cyril Ramaphosa established the commission to investigate criminality, political interference, and corruption within the criminal justice system.
Over the past two weeks, it has heard dramatic testimony from witnesses, with some implicating ANC National Executive Committee (NEC) member and Police Minister Senzo Mchunu in alleged connections to the criminal underworld.
