Parliament’s ad hoc committee seeks another extension amid witness challenges

# Parliament’s ad hoc committee probing corruption in the criminal justice system may miss its November 28 deadline again. Chairperson Soviet Lekganyane says over 250 submissions still need review. Evidence leader Norman Arendse says some witnesses will submit written statements, while others, including Crime Intelligence head Dumisani Khumalo remain unavailable. Khumalo is yet to conclude his testimony at the Madlanga Commission. He added that suspended Inspector-General for Intelligence Imtiaz Fazel is not cooperating and should be summoned on 21 November. The committee will resume next week.
