So, Cat Matlala in one of the Take Down operations that took place on the 6th December 2024 at his house, casually told the DPCI Investigators that General Shiburi was "his person", basically "I know your boss" kinda thing, as Head of Orginized Crime.
This is the day that the PKTT Investigators were going to search for Jerry Boshoga since Cat was alleged to have been involved in the kidnapping.
It appears like Matlala was tipped off, or he said something to that effect, that he knew they were coming to raid his house. According to General Khumalo and Witnesses A,B and C, they suspected this could have been the time that Jerry was moved.
Now Shiburi says he was upset to hear that Cat said he was his person, and he called him to confront him and ask why would he say such a thing. He had to scrible down the name of the person who told him for security reasons.
General Baloyi was like, "but do you blame him for saying you are his person? I mean he gives you money, loans, you are friends, you go to parties together, you talk on the phone frequently, you said you often advise him about his legal issues, and at this point when the raid happened you still owed him R20k of the balance of the R70k loan, so you can't blame him."
Ja no it was a bit tough for the General today.
