Richard Mdluli seeks to address claims at Ad Hoc Committee

Retired Crime Intelligence Head, Richard Mdluli wants Parliament's Ad Hoc Committee investigating concerns of national security to give him an opportunity to make a presentation.

In a letter written by his lawyers to the committee, Mdluli says he is deeply aggrieved by adverse allegations being made against him at the committee.

The Committee is investigating allegations of criminal infiltration, corruption and political interference in the justice system that were made by KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner, Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi during a media briefing, in July.

The letter says Mdluli has not been invited by the committee to present his version of events or respond to the serious allegations levelled against him despite his name repeatedly used as a benchmark for corruption and as an example of institutional rot.
