Business Mogul Calvin Mojalefa Mathibeli has responded after the South African Police Services (SAPS) raided his offices again today.
This comes after SAPS allegedly raided multiple business premises of Calvin and Family Group were raided for the third time on Tuesday midday.

“Over the past seven years we have been subjected to repeated and unlawful attempts by certain members of the South African Police Service to target both Chairman and The Company.
The latest action, involving a search and seizure operation based on false and misleading allegations is simply another continuation of this pattern of harassment.
“This development does not come as a surprise to us. It forms part of a broader effort to conceal and justify rogue operations that have been directed against us for more than 7 years. While the current events may appear new to the public, they are in fact part of a long history of intimidation, harassment and abuse of power that we have consistently endured behind the scenes,” he said.

Mathibeli said that after multiple failed attempts to damage their reputation and operations through baseless investigations and unlawful actions, the authorities have now resorted to opening a case.
“We view this move as yet another desperate attempt to legitimize actions that have no lawful or factual basis. We must also place on record that what we are witnessing is not merely misconduct by individual officers but a disturbing pattern of abuse of state power that appears to benefit certain private interests within the security industry. There is a network of individuals who seek to manipulate law enforcement structures to eliminate business competition.
“Approximately 4 years ago, a security company owner from Gauteng entered my premises and demanded that I share my business with him. I refused. Since that moment, a campaign of intimidation and interference has followed. This same individual later lost a security contract to our company and has repeatedly boasted about his alleged influence and control over certain members of the police,” he said.
Mathibeli who is married to former Gagasi and Ukhozi FM radio producer and actress Simangele Mathibeli said this individual is a former police officer whom during his time in the SAPS in Gauteng, was allegedly involved in criminal activities including the use of police vehicles in heists.
“Even after leaving the service, his conduct has continued to reflect the same pattern of intimidation and unlawful influence. In the most recent incident in December 2025, he approached one of our client and attempted to convince them to pressure me into sharing our contract with him, In return he promised that all the “problems with the police” that we have been experiencing would immediately disappear.
“This statement alone demonstrates the level of manipulation and collusion that exists between certain private individuals and elements within law enforcement.
This same individual has reportedly been sharing information about planned police raids on our offices with his associates, raising serious concerns about how sensitive operational information is being handled and who truly controls certain policing actions,” he said.
Mathubeli said it is deeply concerning that the SAPS appears to be captured and manipulated by individuals seeking to settle business rivalries through state machinery.
“Law enforcement institutions should protect citizens and businesses, not serve as tools for private vendettas and anti-competitive conduct. Despite these ongoing attempts to intimidate and silence us, we remain confident that the truth will ultimately prevail. We will continue to cooperate with lawful processes while also exposing the abuse of power and corruption that has been directed against us.
The truth shall come out,” he said.
Earlier on Tuesday, MDNtv News reported that law enforcement agencies were currently raiding multiple properties linked to Mathibeli in four South African provinces in connection with a tender fraud case registered in Johannesburg.
Search warrants were secured earlier this week, and investigators are seizing documents and other materials believed to be relevant to the probe into alleged irregularities in government contracts.
The scope of the raids underscores growing scrutiny of Mathibeli’s business dealings, particularly in logistics, security and construction sectors.
Mathibeli has been no stranger to public controversy, having previously taken an adversarial stance against the South African Police Service (SAPS).
He has publicly accused Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, the KwaZulu‑Natal provincial police commissioner, of harassment and abuse of power, alleging that senior police officers targeted his family, employees and business premises in a campaign of intimidation claims that SAPS has dismissed as baseless.
The feud between Mathibeli and Mkhwanazi has spilled into the courts, with the police commissioner securing a High Court interdict to stop Mathibeli from repeating defamatory allegations against him.
Mkhwanazi has denied the accusations and is pursuing legal action, saying the claims have caused reputational harm.

]]>In South Africa’s security industry, the South African Intruder Detection Services Association (SAIDSA) Reaction Man Competition isn’t just a test—it’s the test. And on 25 September at Ballito, Blue Security’s reaction officers proved why they’re the gold standard, dominating the field to earn the title of Best Reaction Team in KZN.

Blue Security has cemented itself as the undisputed reaction team in KZN by performing the best at the SAIDSA Reaction Man Competition 2025. This makes them worthy of being the first line of defence when one thinks of pressing their panic button. The SAIDSA Reaction Man competition tests participants in a number of high-pressure challenges. These include live-fire shooting drills, obstacle driving, endurance trials, and physical fitness assessments—all essential skills for a reaction officer to wield.
Blue Security didn’t just win, they swept. Minenhle Cele took the shooting event and walked away as Best Overall Reaction Man. Nkosinathi Gcwensa posted the fastest driving time. Jemol Davidson dominated the fitness challenge. When the team categories were announced, Blue Security claimed both: Cele and Gcwensa as champions, Davidson and Zwelithini Ndlovu as runners-up. The overall podium? Cele on top, Ndlovu second, Gcwensa third. All Blue.
This isn’t new territory for Blue Security, as they’ve won the Reaction Man Competition before, both as a team and at national level with a Best Overall title. Last year they went one-two at provincials and racked up multiple category wins at nationals. The pattern’s clear: consistent top three national finishes, regular first-place category wins in shooting, driving, and fitness. The mandate is clear for Blue Security—we panic, they show up and perform.
Blue Security CEO Henk van Bemmelen states that “these results reflect the skill, discipline and tireless training of our officers, who are always prepared for any situation.” “Being named the Best Reaction Team in KZN is an honour that recognises their skill and reinforces our commitment to protecting Durban communities with professionalism and care,” says van Bemmelen.
There’s a reason this competition matters: it answers the only question that counts—who shows up when it matters? SAIDSA’s Reaction Man event strips away everything except skill, preparation, and nerve. It’s where South Africa’s reaction officers prove they’re ready for the moments that define their profession. Communities in KZN can find comfort in knowing that when push comes to shove, Blue Security will rise above.
