Summary
Ekurhuleni has officially fired suspended metro police commander Julius Mkhwanazi, a move timed to coincide with the Madlanga Commission’s first anniversary and amid mounting evidence of corruption. Mkhwanazi, who oversaw operations and specialized services, was suspended last November after misconduct allegations surfaced. His dismissal follows a year of intense scrutiny from the commission, which has linked him to multiple criminal cases and warned of deep institutional rot if findings hold true.
