Suspended Police Minister Senzo Mchunu is set to resume testimony in Parliament on Tuesday where he will face Members of Parliament who will question his decision to disband the Political Killings Task Team.

Mchunu, who has been placed on special leave, will appear before the Ad Hoc Committee probing claims of alleged interference in the justice system.

The 11-member ad hoc committee set up to investigate allegations made by KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Lieutenant-General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, commenced its hearings on 7 October 2025.

As with the currently sitting Madlanga Commission of inquiry into the same topic, the first witness was Mkhwanazi.

The committee is chaired by ANC national executive committee member Soviet Lekganyane and includes representatives from the ANC, DA, EFF, MKP, IFP, and PA.

This in the wake of Mkhwanazi’s allegations, made on July 6, of the extensive infiltration of and operations within the country’s law enforcement and intelligence structures, by a sophisticated crime syndicate.
