JUST IN | Fadiel Adams to appear before Madlanga Commission

Fadiel Adams, a political figure known for his controversial stance, is scheduled to appear before the Madlanga Commission on August 11. The commission is investigating allegations that Adams obtained and circulated sensitive crime intelligence documents, which could lead to criminal charges. These accusations come after KZN Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi testified against Adams, claiming he mishandled classified information and used it to file false complaints against police officers. Former IDAC head Andrea Johnson also suggested Adams might face legal action for possessing such documents. Adams denies the allegations, stating the documents were left anonymously in his office and that he acted in the public interest. He is currently under R10,000 bail for charges related to interfering with an investigation into the murder of ANC Youth League leader Sindiso Magaqa.
