Matlala legal team struggles to access him at the C-Max Prison

Advocate Fatima Missi, representing alleged crime kingpin Vusimuzi "Cat" Matlala at the Madlanga Commission, says his legal team has not had sufficient access to their client. Missi says she had to "grovel and beg" security officials to be allowed to consult Matlala at the X max prison. She has asked for more time to file the required legal documents. Commission chairperson Justice Madlanga says he does not understand the issue around agonising over consultations with Matlala, saying these matters should have been dealt with in his response.
