Johnson aware of secret fund allegations involving former police minister

Former IDAC head Advocate Andrea Johnson has told the Madlanga Commission she was aware of allegations that Crime Intelligence secret funds were allegedly used to benefit former police minister Bheki Cele, but says there was no evidence linking those funds to the purchase of a vehicle. Johnson testified that she could not determine from the complaint how the money was allegedly used. She also told the commission concerns over the abuse of Crime Intelligence secret funds date back to earlier investigations, including the prosecutions of former police commissioner Jackie Selebi, former Crime Intelligence boss Richard Mdluli and former Crime Intelligence CFO Major General Solly Lazarus.
