DEVELOPING:

MADLANGA COMMISSION’S POSITION ON MAJOR-GENERAL FEROZ KHAN’S COURT APPLICATION

8 JUNE 2026

* The Commission has issued a notice to Maj-Gen Feroz Khan to appear and testify on 1 July 2026.
* ⁠The Commission has set aside several days for his testimony, and he is expected to testify for as long as is necessary until he is excused by the Chairperson of the Commission, Justice Mbuyiseli Madlanga.
* ⁠The Commission issued a Regulation 10 (6) notice to the SAPS to access General Khan’s devices which were seized a few weeks ago on the 10th of May.
* ⁠On Wednesday, 3 June 2026, the Commission was served with an urgent application brought by General Khan in the Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg, in which he was seeking to interdict and restrain the Commission and the SAPS, amongst others, from dealing with any of his devices, and any data or information on his devices.
* ⁠The Commission replied with a lengthy affidavit on Saturday, 6 June 2026, explaining why the material on the devices was necessary for the Commission’s processes.
* ⁠Yesterday (Sunday), the Commission learnt that General Khan had secretly approached the court with an attempt to hold the proceedings in camera and to deny the public access to any of the affidavits of the Commission.
* ⁠This morning (Monday) General Khan abandoned that urgent application to have the initial application heard in camera. He also abandoned his initial urgent application against the Commission.
* Following a case management meeting this morning before the Acting Deputy Judge President, Madame Justice Lebogang Modiba, the withdrawal of both General Khan’s applications will be embodied in a court order.
* ⁠As soon as that order has been issued, the Commission will make its affidavits available to the media and the public.
* As matters stand, Major-General Khan is set to appear before the Commission on the 1st of July 2026 and his testimony is key to to the Commission’s work, given the numerous serious allegations which have been made against him and other implicated SAPS officers, as well as other individuals.

The Department of Home Affairs says that through its partnership with some of the country's banks, it will phase out the green identity document. Last night, President Cyril Ramaphosa announced that the department will phase out the green ID as one of the measures to strengthen the security of the country's citizenship. Deputy Director General of Operations Thulani Mavuso says the plan is to have over 700 sites by the end of the year.

The Battle of Mutale River was a skirmish on March 28, 1988, in what was then the Northern Transvaal (now Limpopo), South Africa, between a nine-person Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK) unit and the Venda Defence Force (VDF). The MK unit, which had crossed from Zimbabwe, was engaged by the VDF, which was reinforced by the South African Defence Force (SADF) and helicopter gunships. The battle resulted in the deaths of five of the nine MK soldiers. Source: Madeleine Fullard, Department of Military Veterans.

When Europeans steal a country they name themselves after it.

Israelis claim to be "Semites" despite being European

Colonists claim they're "Americans" while reducing real Americans to "Indians"

Boers claim they're "Afrikaners"

Identity theft is a huge part of colonialism.

There is one crucial issue that you leave out. This economy has failed to grow because its development model is defunct. It is an IMF/World Bank imposed model. An extractive & devastating macroeconomic framework, implemented by SARB & Treasury. It extracts wealth from SA.

This was in 2019. All talk no ACTION!

Like I said, believe the President at your own risk.

For the record, @HomeAffairsSA government officials are corrupt.

[Veve @LudidiVelani]

Despite the president's address tonight, the underlying challenges are unlikely to disappear. Employers will continue hiring undocumented foreign nationals, corrupt Home Affairs officials will continue selling documents and others will continue accepting bribes to facilitate illegal immigration and fraudulent documentation.

First step for ordinary citizens, without law enforcement, is to boycott buying from their shops. After that everything else will fall into place.

I'm talking to you 🫵🏾. It's time for that hideous green pamphlet to be replaced with a smart ID. Otherwise...30 June, jokes 😂. Just replace it, it's a major national security risk.

[Pluralist @Rea411]

Even the president knows how to use appropriate language when faced with pressure. He used "illegal immigration" because that's what led to this current challenge.

The South African Police Service & SANDF conducted an intelligence driven operation and has arrested two suspects in Mpumalanga, Mooiplaas with stolen military firearms.

This relates to the theft of weapons at the SANDF Base in April 2026.

Various offences opened against the suspects including violation of the Immigration Act.

This Ghanaian human trafficking story is reminding me of the state sponsored human trafficking of Kenyans to the Middle East.

A 2025 NYT report revealed that the state was benefiting from this trafficking. With senior government officials implicated.

Including Ruto’s family.

Yet before 1994, less than 37% of Black South African households had access to electricity. Almost all white households had electricity. Rural settings accounted for approximately 12%. Now we're at 88%. Rural households account for roughly 60%. They had the means to give us electricity. They just didn’t want to.
