Matlala claims IDAC coerced false testimony against ex-minister Cele

Vusimuzi Matlala, an alleged crime boss, testified before the Madlanga Commission that investigators from the Independent Directorate for Anti-Corruption (IDAC) forced him to fabricate evidence against former police minister Bheki Cele as part of a plea deal. The claim, if substantiated, would indicate prosecutorial misconduct and political interference in a high-profile case. The commission's findings remain pending, and the credibility of Matlala's testimony is unverified.
