BREAKING — The Nkabinde Report Has Been Released
For more than 20 years, I have carried the weight of what happened in Cato Manor and the evidence I believed deserved to be heard.

I never claimed to have all the answers. I never asked for anyone to be convicted without a fair trial. I asked for the evidence to be examined — openly, independently and fairly.
I blew the whistle. I faced threats. I eventually left South Africa for my safety, but I kept my evidence consistenty, including photographs, videos, statements and other material because I believed that one day the evidence would have to speak for itself.
I later complied multiple times when aproached in Greece by the South African authorities and gave evidence.
Today, with the release of the Nkabinde Inquiry report, https://t.co/alY8xzP3B0 am humbled to see that some of the evidence I fought for has finally been recorded and considered.
The panel found my evidence uncontroverted.
Footage was displayed at the hearing.
- The report treats the photographs/videos as part of the record, not as a sideshow.

-The panel records, in substance, that I:was recruited and transferred with Booysen’s assistance;
-observed planted/stolen firearms, scene tampering, removal of spent cartridges on Booysen’s instructions, torture, and “trophy photos”;
-was allowed to photograph scenes and was given a journalist list for exclusive crime-scene photos;
-was present after the Berea shooting (CAS 288/05/2008) and doubted the official version;
-was approached by SAPS/NPA in 2012, 2015 and 2016;
-declined to return without security guarantees, but did not refuse to co-operate;
-signed a Greek statement via MLA, later translated by a court-appointed translator in 2018;
-reported intimidation and contact attempts by Booysen once he was identified as a potential state witness. ([421]–[448])
-It recognised me as the first witness to establish a similar-fact pattern of alleged racketeering.([490])
-It rejected the argument that my statement was unsigned and therefore unusable.
-It also rejected the claim that there was simply “no evidence.”
-Most importantly, the report found a prima facie case for Johan Booysen and members of the Cato Manor Unit to answer in court.([421]–[448])
I want to be very clear: a prima facie finding is not a criminal conviction.
I do not seek to prejudge the outcome of any criminal proceedings. Those accused must have the right to defend themselves, and the evidence must be tested properly before a court.
That is all I ever asked for.
For the families who have waited for answers for so many years, the delay has been heartbreaking. No report can bring back the years that have been lost.https://t.co/ownrJWdVaA
I therefore receive this moment not with triumph, but with humility.
I am grateful that my evidence was finally given an opportunity to be heard.
For 20 years, I refused to give up because I believed that truth, accountability and human rights are worth defending — even when doing so comes at a personal cost.
Today, I hope the next chapter will be one of due process, transparency and justice.
Let the evidence be tested.
Let the accused have their rights.
Let the victims and their families have their day.
And let the truth be determined through a fair and open judicial process.
I never asked for anything more.

You are wasting your talent on these people and losing your credibility bro. You spoke Mnangagwa into power during the coup, but they never appreciated your spin my brother.
You are in exile today because of these guys, why support them when they will never really enrich you because they don’t want to see anyone outside their circle rise.
We can get you better gigs than this, but this will make you lose your credibility. And being in Zambia they can’t send you a car that didn’t come in with ……
How exactly is Israel our greatest ally?
Specifically, what have they done to earn that title? Israel has not deployed troops alongside US forces in any conflict since its founding in 1948.
Israel is by far the single largest recipient of American foreign aid in our history.
Adjusting for inflation, US aid to Israel from 1951 to 2022 totaled $317.9 billion, making it the largest recipient of American foreign aid since World War II.
Why don't we worry about fixing problems for everyday Americans instead of paving their streets with American tax dollars?
Leaving out that Jeff Bezos’ mom immediately married a Cuban-American engineer who wound up working at peak-Exxon, and that the two had the capital to give him a quarter million dollar loan after he graduated from Princeton (or better yet, leaving out that Jeff’s mom’s father was ‘the regional director of the US’ Atomic Energy Agency in New Mexico… you know, the thing that managed Los Alamos) is certainly a choice.
The most dangerous phrase in medicine isn’t “we don’t know.”
It’s “the science is settled.”
History has a lot to say about that.

@LauraLoomer@FoxNews I never thought @LauraLoomer would endorse the Obama/Brennan case against me. And I'm disappointed that she thinks people can't change their minds about politics or politicians. The cool thing would have been to reach out and ask me, but she didn't. "Investigative journalist?"
Roll back to 2004 referendum held in Ireland to close the loophole of Nigerians arriving Ireland heavily pregnant and then getting to stay in Ireland on the basis the children where Irish born. The referendum was a landslide victory for those who wanted this loophole closed.
So why is the below still happening ?
@EYakoby Israel waking up to the fact that they have no weapon that works against freedom of speech so all they can do is throw shit at the wall in the hopes someone’s dumb enough to call it chocolate cake.
No that’s just Eyal spewing sewage like normal.
All the Africans that are currently supporting Israel have no idea that if they were in Israel right now they wouldn’t be allowed into the bomb shelters. But don’t mind me.
Wild fact: Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking network began unraveling because of a fight between two teenage girls at school.
One called the other a “prostitute.”
A 14-year-old was found with unexplained cash.
Parents and school officials raised alarms.
Police investigated.
Dozens of underage victims were uncovered.
One moment of vigilance exposed a protected predator.
Imagine if no one had spoken up.
