Businessman and alleged police source, Tumelo Nku, has resumed his testimony at the Madlanga Commission on Monday.
Madlanga Commission has delayed private investigator Paul O’Sullivan’s highly anticipated testimony as proceedings continue with alleged police informant Tumelo Nku returning to the witness stand.
The sequencing shift has placed renewed focus on conflicting accounts surrounding cash transactions and the handling of seized narcotics linked to the 2021 Aeroton drug bust in Johannesburg.
Nku is under sustained questioning over inconsistencies in his explanation for carrying large sums of cash during his arrest, with figures ranging between R60,000 and R65,000 raised during testimony.
His evidence forms part of a wider inquiry into the massive cocaine seizure, where 715kg was confiscated, but 136kg, valued at approximately R55 million, later went missing from police storage, raising serious questions about chain-of-custody failures.
