His final notes pointed to a bitter feud with Forensic Data Analysts (FDA), a company he accused of building police software with public funds — and now they’re being dragged into a deadly conspiracy. FDA denies all links to Mfazi’s death — and the deaths of two other high-profile figures — calling the claims a smear campaign. With a $1 billion debt owed by the police and years of legal battles, FDA insists they’re innocent — even as public records show former minister Tina Joemat-Pettersson pushed for a settlement. The truth? Still buried — and dangerously close to the surface. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
