When an ANC councillor was killed at his KwaZulu-Natal home in February 2025, suspended police minister Senzo Mchunu questioned why the matter was being investigated by the political killings task team PKTT.
So said KwaZulu-Natal acting deputy police commissioner Maj-Gen Anthony Gopaul in his testimony to the Madlanga commission of inquiry on Monday.
Gopaul told the commission Mchunu called him to ask for regular updates about the investigation into the murder of ANC ward councillor Phendukani Mabhida after he was fatally shot at his home in northern KwaZulu-Natal.
