Madlanga commission: Alleged political fixer Oupa Brown Mogotsi faced intense scrutiny on Thursday at the Madlanga Commission, where he was pressed to clarify his lack of qualifications and produce evidence of his claimed role as an undercover agent for the South African Police Service (SAPS). The commission is investigating allegations of political interference, corruption, and criminal conduct within South Africa’s justice system.
A central concern during Mogotsi’s testimony is the implications of lying under oath and how it affects the credibility of his evidence. Commission chairperson Mbuyiseli Madlanga noted that Mogotsi appeared not to grasp the seriousness of taking an oath, raising questions about the reliability of his statements and the impact on the commission’s proceedings.
