MADLANGA COMMISSION: ‘Sick’ businessman Carrim, who may’ve been out shopping, now says his movements are private

At the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry, North West ANC-linked businessman Suleiman Carrim argued that disclosing details about his movements could endanger his family and violate his privacy. Carrim, who was absent from the hearing, claimed that revealing information about his medical condition, family activities, and security risks would harm his dignity, standing in his religious community, and his wife's business. He requested the court to hear his postponement application in camera, citing potential threats to his family. The commission will decide on Thursday whether to proceed with the application in private. Earlier, Carrim testified about his connections with individuals linked to organized crime.
