Ms Motlhasedi

Advocate Motlhasedi is a legal counsel appearing before the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry, where she is tasked with examining witnesses, notably Commissioner Mkhwanazi. During the proceedings, she focused on the testimony of a pseudonymous witness, Witness D, whose redacted statement was central to the inquiry. She pressed Commissioner Mkhwanazi on his awareness of Witness D's evidence, which concerned him directly, and highlighted the redactions that obscured the witness's identity. Her questioning also delved into specific allegations against Mkhwanazi, including those related to "out of jurisdiction operations," which she sought to address in detail. Her role involves ensuring that serious allegations are put to witnesses for their response.
