KwaZulu-Natal Hawks head Major-General Lesetja Senona’s testimony has been postponed.
KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) Hawks head Major-General Lesetja Senona’s testimony before the Madlanga Commission has been postponed after his legal representative reported ill.
Senona, who has faced scrutiny over the disappearance of cocaine valued at about R200 million from Hawks custody, had been expected to return to the commission on Friday.
His evidence is regarded as central to understanding how more than half a ton of seized drugs vanished from a supposedly secure police facility.
Commission evidence leader Advocate Mahlape Sello informed proceedings on Thursday that Senona had been stood down after the commission received notification that his attorney was unavailable due to illness.
