Paul O'Sullivan testified at the Madlanga Commission.
Private investigator Paul O'Sullivan said the recent claims of organised crime infiltrating the SA Police Service (SAPS) criminal justice system merely confirmed a crisis he says has existed for well over a decade.
Testifying Madlanga Commission on Monday, O'Sullivan said the claims raised by KZN Police Commissioner Lt-Gen Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi did not reveal new information, arguing that criminal networks had already entrenched themselves within law enforcement years before Mkhwanazi's widely publicised briefing.
Giving evidence on his long-running investigations into corruption and organised crime, O'Sullivan said he had first encountered evidence of deep-rooted infiltration while serving as acting police commissioner in 2011.
On July 6, 2025, Mkhwanazi held a media briefing, exposing the alleged corruption in the justice system and police ministry.
