Summary
The NPA is re-examining the case against suspended Police Commissioner Fannie Masemola amid a sweeping overhaul of IDAC, as the Justice Minister races to appoint a new acting head to restore stability and credibility to the anti-corruption unit. Critics questioned the optics of charging Masemola alongside fraud suspects, while the NPA confirmed his case is part of a broader review — including the provisional withdrawal of charges against others, leaving room for future action. With vetting underway for an outsider to lead IDAC, the focus is on auditing cases, rebuilding staff, and fixing financial oversight — all aimed at transforming IDAC into a more effective and trusted institution.
