Mkhwanazi's WhatsApp messages link Sibiya to Sandton property and cash dealings

- RAPULA MOATSHE

SUSPECTED crime kingpin, Vusimuzi "Cat" Matlala, allegedly shared information with KwaZulu-Natal SAPS Commissioner Lieutenant-General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi about a Sandton house where suspended Deputy National Police Commissioner Lieutenant-General Shadrack Sibiya purportedly collected money in a State vehicle.

Matlala also allegedly claimed to have paid R2 million towards Sibiya's plot purchase.

These allegations emerged in testimony before the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry in Pretoria, where KZN Hawks head Major-General Lesetja Senona testified yesterday.

They were contained in WhatsApp messages Mkhwanazi allegedly sent to Senona about his meeting with Matlala at his Durban homestead on April 15, 2025.

The meeting was allegedly arranged by former Police minister Bheki Cele for Matlala to get Mkhwanazi's help with his dispute over a cancelled R360 million SAPS medical services contract with his company Medicare24.
