Hawks officer, Lt-Colonel Kwazikwakhe Sibiya, has testified at the Madlanga Commission to testify more on the R200 million stolen drugs in KZN.

The Madlanga Commission is set for another crucial day on Friday as a new Hawks witness, Lieutenant Colonel Kwazikwakhe Sibiya, testifies amid mounting scrutiny over missing drugs, evidence failures, and leadership within the elite crime-fighting unit.

Sibiya is expected to take the stand after the appearance of KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) Hawks boss Leseja Senona was postponed because his legal counsel fell ill.

The commission has spent the week probing the handling of drug seizures and the storage of evidence, with testimony exposing serious concerns about missing narcotics, breaches of procedure, and accountability within the Hawks.

Attention has largely centred on events that unfolded under Senona's leadership, with investigators examining how drug exhibits were managed and safeguarded.
