Suspended EMPD Deputy Chief Brigadier Julius Mkhwanazi is among five suspects arrested over the murder of Emmanuel Mbense.
Five suspects, including suspended Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Police Department (EMPD) deputy chief Brigadier Julius Mkhwanazi, are expected to appear before the Brakpan Magistrate’s Court on Thursday in connection with the murder of Emmanuel Mbense.
The suspects were arrested on Wednesday.
Their arrests followed investigations into allegations that Mbense was tortured and killed at his Brakpan home in April 2022 before his body was dumped in a dam in Duduza, Nigel.
The killing was detailed at the Madlanga Commission, which heard allegations of a cover-up surrounding Mbense’s death.
