From a R300 million cocaine bust to an alleged R10 million offer, an arrest, a shooting and questions over his wealth and connections. Major-General Feroz Khan has now been dismissed from the SAPS, but his story is far from over.
Major-General Feroz Khan’s career in the South African Police Service (SAPS) has come under increasing scrutiny, with allegations ranging from his conduct during a major cocaine bust to claims of political and business connections emerging before the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry.
Khan, who served as the deputy head of Crime Intelligence, was dismissed by the SAPS on Wednesday after he failed to appear before the senior officer handling his expedited disciplinary proceedings.
His dismissal, however, is not the end of the questions surrounding him.
Khan - the director of several businesses, including a car parts chain apparently worth R21 million, and the owner of several luxury properties and vehicles - is still expected to appear before the Madlanga Commission, where a series of witnesses have made allegations concerning his conduct, relationships and alleged interference in police and other State matters.
