EFF leader, Julius Malema, has written to the Parliamentary Speaker, Thoko Didiza, urging her to provide more resources to support and strengthen the capacity of the Ad Hoc committee probing allegations by KZN Police Commissioner, Lt-Gen. Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi.<\/p>\n
In a statement on Monday, Malema said having an evidence Leader, supported by only two junior staff members, was severely overstretched, with insufficient capacity to manage committee sessions, witness consultations and extensive documentation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis level of under-resourcing now threatens the integrity of the committee\u2019s work,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Malema highlighted that the volume, sensitivity and complexity of the documentation before the committee require far greater administrative, legal, research and forensic support than what is currently provided.<\/p>\n
According to Malema, there have been poorly drafted witness statements, missing, incomplete, and inaccurate information; discrepancies that a properly capacitated support team would have detected and a general absence of specialised skills, including forensic investigative capacity.<\/p>\n
This is despite the nature of the allegations under review.<\/p>\n
The committee is investigating allegations of corruption, criminality and infiltration in the SAPS and Justice system.<\/p>\n
Big names, including the suspended Police Minister, Senzo Mchunu, the suspended deputy police minister, Shadrack Sibiya, Maj-Gen. Lesetja Senona, crime expert Calvin Rafadi, and the suspended EMPD acting head, Julius Mkhwanazi, have so far been implicated in criminal conspiracies.<\/p>\n
Malema urged the speaker\u2019s office to treat this matter as urgent.<\/p>\n
\u201cMembers of Parliament are dedicating significant time, travel, and public funds toparticipate in this critical process.<\/p>\n
\u201cYet the administrative support provided fallsbelow the minimum standard required for a credible parliamentary enquiry,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the ad hoc is expected to hear testimony from criminal tycoon, Vusimuzi \u201cCat\u201d Matlala at the Kgosi Mampuru Correctional Facility in Pretoria this week. <\/p>\n
