Ndlozi Rallies Support for Police Commissioner Mkhwanazi as EFF Feud Escalates

The rift deepened after Malema labeled Mkhwanazi a coward during an EFF event in Johannesburg, rejecting the commissioner’s parliamentary testimony about Crime Intelligence head Feroz Khan’s alleged boasts of influence over him, including meetings on an EFF rally and the 2023 AKA murder case.
Ndlozi warned that attacks on Mkhwanazi distract from exposing corruption in SAPS leadership, drawing parallels to the 2021 killing of whistleblower Babita Deokaran. Public backing for Mkhwanazi grows, with figures like Patricia Mashale supporting his claims amid arrests in high-profile cases and calls from Police Committee chair Ian Cameron for his protection.
