SUSPENDED SAPS SERGEANT FANNIE NKOSI BACK IN COURT OVER EXPLOSIVES AND DOCKET TAMPERING

MDNtv — Wed, 20 May 2026 19:19:27 +0000

Suspended police sergeant Fannie Nkosi is back in the spotlight as he appears in court over serious allegations involving explosives, police dockets, ammunition, unsecured firearms, theft, defeating the ends of justice, and alleged evidence tampering.

Nkosi, who was previously referred to as “Witness F” at the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry, was arrested after a raid at his Pretoria North home allegedly uncovered several police dockets, a stun grenade, live ammunition, cash, and unsecured firearms.

The case has now deepened, with fresh allegations linking Nkosi to a 2022 Thohoyandou case involving dagga, firearms, and explosives. Police allege that he falsely claimed to be from Head Office, removed an original docket, and interfered with an exhibit bag containing confiscated dagga.

His bail was denied after the court found that he could potentially interfere with witnesses and undermine the justice process.

This case raises major questions about police corruption, docket tampering, internal SAPS accountability, and whether rogue elements inside law enforcement are being exposed.

DISGRACED SUSPENDED SERGEANT FANNIE NKOSI DENIED BAIL

MDN tv — Wed, 22 Apr 2026 18:38:23 +0000

The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) welcomes the decision of The Pretoria North Magistrates’ Court denied suspended Sergeant Fannie Ezekiel Nkosi (43) bail.

The court found that the accused failed to discharge the onus resting upon him to satisfy the court that the interests of justice permit his release on bail.

Nkosi faces multiple charges, including unlawful possession of explosives; three counts of failure to safeguard firearms; eight counts of failure to safeguard ammunition; defeating the administration of justice; failure to mount a stand up safe as per the SABS 953-1/2, theft and money laundering

It is alleged that police officials attached to a task team emanating from the Madlanga Commission acted on information regarding the unlawful possession of ammunition at the accused’s residence.

Gauteng National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) Lumka Mahanjana said on 02 April 2026, the task team executed a search warrant at Nkosi’s home in Pretoria North.

“During the search, police discovered firearms, ammunition, a stun grenade, South African Police Service (SAPS) dockets, and other state-issued items at various locations on the premises. A substantial amount of cash, exceeding R50 000, was also found concealed beneath a mattress.

“The accused was unable to provide a satisfactory explanation for the origin of the money. He was subsequently arrested. In opposing bail, the State, led by Advocate Tholoana Sekhoyana, placed on record the affidavit of the Investigating Officer, Sergeant Thembekile Mathwa,” she said.

Mahanjana said the affidavit indicated that the accused poses a flight risk, may evade trial, and is likely to interfere with witnesses and ongoing investigations, particularly given his knowledge of police processes.

“The court agreed with the State’s submissions and denied bail. The matter has been postponed to 21 May 2026 for further investigations, and the accused remains in custody,” she said.

Deputy President Mashatile Denies Allegations That He Met Cat Matlala

MDN tv — Thu, 09 Apr 2026 15:31:34 +0000

Deputy President Paul Mashatile has once again maintained he does not know alleged Big 5 cartel figure Vusumuzi “Cat” Matlala.

Speaking on the side-lines of the Gauteng Investment Conference on Thursday, Mashatile reiterated that he was not in the country at the time of the said meeting with Matlala.

“I don’t know Cat Matlala, in fact, when I heard about the plans to meet with me on 23 December, I was not even in the country. I don’t know what Fannie Nkosi is talking about,” Mashatile told reporters.

Mashatile’s camp has dismissed the allegations as unfounded and politically motivated, calling for evidence to support the claims.

The controversy is reminiscent of previous scandals, including the CR17 debacle, and has sparked concerns about corruption and state capture within the ANC.

The allegations are part of a broader investigation into Matlala’s dealings, including his alleged involvement in securing state tenders and funding ANC events.

Matlala’s connections to senior officials, including Colonel Smangaliso Simelane, have also come under scrutiny.

Tensions Spark As Suspended SAPS Deputy Commissioner Lieutenant General Shadrack Sibiya Talks about Musa Khawula’s Arrest at Madlanga Commission

MDN tv — Tue, 24 Feb 2026 19:02:08 +0000

Suspended Lieutenant General Shadrack Sibiya’s testimony at the Madlanga Commission intensified as the spotlight fell on Cat Matlala, General Shibiri, Brown Mogotsi, and controversial blogger Musa Khawula.

Sibiya dropped explosive claims about the arrest warrants alleging pressure from political offices and even references to the “after 9” clubs.

The commissioner revisited screenshots of posts allegedly made by Blogger Musa Khawula containing serious allegations about Cat Matlala.

Evidence showed that General Shibiri messaged Musa saying, “Don’t run the story Chommie. He’s a good guy. He never bothers anyone and lives a private life.”

Commissioners suggested this looked like an attempt to shield Matlala.

Sibiya said he could not say whether anyone was protecting anyone. But the real tension erupted over an arrest warrant.

Evidence before the commission shows Sergeant Fannie Nkosi sent Cat Matlala a copy of Musa Khawula’s arrest warrant. Sibiya agreed under questioning that sharing a warrant with a private individual would be improper. However, he strongly denied instructing anyone to send it.

Nkosi’s version is clear, he says Sibiya told him to forward the warrant to Matlala because Matlala’s security company had insight into places Musa allegedly frequented on weekends.

Sibiya rejected this outright. He said he never gave such an instruction and insisted he would not involve a private security company in executing an arrest.

The commission then pressed him about the reasoning allegedly given, that Matlala and his security team knew the venues Musa visited. That’s when an unusual detail emerged.

When asked about the locations, Sibiya described them as “after 9 clubs” referring effectively late-night gay club venues.

Sibiya initially wrote the description down before confirming verbally that he was referring to after-9 establishments.

Another major issue was why Sibiya appeared consistently updated about Musa Khawula’s arrest.

Messages showed he was informed when Musa was detained in Sandton cells and when the arrest was confirmed.

Commissioners questioned why he was kept in the loop so closely when the matter was not directly under his command structure.

Sibiya’s response was that he works closely with certain operational teams and often stays informed on arrests, especially when warrants are involved.

He denied having any special or personal interest in Musa’s case.

As if this was not enough, Sibiya was further confronted with a series of messages suggesting arrangements were being made to transport impalas to his home.

“I’ve never had impalas delivered to my home,” Sibiya said repeatedly.

The commission heard that on March 21, 2024, Matlala forwarded a voice note to Nkosi. In the recording, a man asks for a pin drop “for where the impala must go.”

Nkosi immediately forwarded the voice note to Sibiya with the message: “Morning it’s from Cat.”

Sibiya acknowledged receiving the message and confirmed that the WhatsApp number used in the exchange belongs to him.

The Madlanga Commission will resume for the fifth time today and Sibiya is expected to wrap up his testimony.
