In today’s video, we unpack the explosive testimony delivered by Shadrack Sibiya at the Madlanga Commission.

During his appearance, Sibiya made serious allegations involving Acting Deputy National Police Commissioner General Senthumule, including claims about internal gossip, divided loyalties, and controversial financial assistance allegedly linked to businessman Vusumuzi “Cat” Matlala.

However, the situation becomes complicated when we examine earlier testimony from General Senthumule herself. Evidence presented at the Commission suggests that she and Sibiya shared what appeared to be a deeply personal and trusting working relationship. The language used in communications — including phrases such as “my DC” — has raised questions about the nature of their professional closeness.

Observers are now asking:

• Did their relationship deteriorate after internal investigations began?
• Did loyalties shift toward General Dumisani Kumalo?
• Was this testimony about accountability — or about betrayal?

General Dumisani Kumalo has maintained that he could not provide reasons for the disbandment of the PKTT unit because he himself was not given clarity. He further indicated that National Police Commissioner Fannie Masemola instructed that Sibiya should not handle certain matters, and that Kumalo would work directly with Masemola instead.

Yet, Sibiya now states that he had full authority and that Masemola empowered him.

This raises a critical institutional question:

👉 Who did Commissioner Masemola officially authorise to manage the disbandment?
👉 Why were there parallel lines of authority?
👉 And why does there appear to be no documentary clarity resolving this?

At this stage, much of the dispute relies on conflicting testimony rather than documentary proof. The Commission will ultimately need to determine whose version is supported by evidence.

This unfolding saga now appears to reflect deeper tensions within senior police leadership — where personal relationships, institutional power, and accountability collide.

All individuals mentioned remain presumed innocent unless proven otherwise, and the Commission continues to hear evidence.
