Public Protector says the investigation into minister Mchunu is progressing despite some setbacks

# The Public Protector’s office says the investigation into suspended Police minister Senzo Mchunu is ongoing and continues to make steady progress. The African Transformation Movement made a formal request to the Public Protector last year for an investigation into the conduct of Mchunu. This was after KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi made damning allegations of executive misconduct and political interference against the minister. The Public Protector has admitted that the investigation has faced setbacks due to the limited availability of key witnesses. However, it maintains that investigators are making headway.
