Public frustration rises as Madlanga Commission is delayed by sick key witnesses

from First Take SA · host SAfm

The Madlanga Commission has hit another delay after IDAC Head Advocate Andrea Johnson was rushed to hospital yesterday. Her legal team submitted a medical certificate, while North West businessman Suliman Carrim will also miss Wednesday's sitting as he continues to receive treatment reportedly outside Gauteng. Suspended Deputy Crime Intelligence Head Major-General Feroz Khan and Mike van der Walt are among witnesses still waiting to testify after being hospitalised. The repeated postponements have led South Africans to question whether delays are becoming a pattern at the inquiry. We spoke to IFP Chief Whip, Nhlanhla Hadebe.
