Suspended KwaZulu-Natal Hawks head Major-General Lesetja Senona has testified before the Madlanga Judicial Commission of Inquiry that he fears for his and his family's safety.
Suspended KwaZulu-Natal Hawks head Major-General Lesetja Senona has revealed that he and his family feared for their lives, as well as another suspension following his testimony at the Madlanga Judicial Commission of Inquiry.
The SA Police Service (SAPS) on Friday announced that Senona and four other officers had been found not guilty on all charges of kidnapping, assault, torture, and theft in the matter relating to alleged Mozambican transnational kidnapping syndicate kingpin Esmael Nangy.
The SAPS’ decision follows a comprehensive disciplinary process and consideration of all the evidence presented at the disciplinary proceedings that led to the officers being cleared of any wrongdoing in relation to the allegations.
During his testimony, Senona told the commission that when he was first suspended in January, he was taken out of his office at gunpoint and escorted out by some of his gun-wielding colleagues.
