Lieutenant General Godfrey Lebeya

Lieutenant General Godfrey Lebeya is the National Head of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation, known as the Hawks. The Madlanga Commission heard that he once headed a National Steering Committee but left the role. He faced scrutiny over an alleged Hawks operation at a Sandhurst home in Johannesburg, where members reportedly claimed to be acting with him. Testimony indicated he received a call about the matter, made inquiries to verify whether any authorised operation was underway, and may have escalated the situation to the Ministry. He was also described as overseeing a task team alongside Lieutenant General Tsumane.
