Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The use of these recovered funds supports a major reform effort for the South African Police Service, which was prompted by weaknesses exposed by the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry. The police minister stated that the commission and the police reset are complementary processes.

The Madlanga Commission is still operational within South Africa, and President Cyril Ramaphosa has announced a deadline extension for its proceedings.
