Suspended EMPD acting chief, Commissioner Julius Mkhwanazi, has declined to respond to claims linking him to a rogue operation that allegedly resulted in the theft of precious stones worth R14.9 million.
Appearing before the Madlanga Commission on Wednesday, Mkhwanazi requested additional time to consult with his legal team before addressing claims made against him by his former girlfriend, known as Witness K.
Mkhwanazi told the commission he had spent recent days preparing for his disciplinary hearing and had not yet had an opportunity to study the transcripts of Witness K's testimony, in which he is implicated.
He suggested that he may instead provide a written statement in response to the allegations.
