General Dumisani Khumalo’s Lawyer Accuses IDAC of agenda Amidst Unconfirmed Detention Rumors BODY: In Pretoria, South Africa, the lawyer for Crime Intelligence head General Dumisani Khumalo has alleged that the Investigating Directorate Against Corruption (IDAC) has a specific agenda against his client. This statement follows an incident where Khumalo reportedly went to the Brooklyn Police Station on Thursday afternoon. Initial reports from eNCA indicated that Khumalo was arrested and undergoing processing, but IDAC spokesperson Henry Mamothame quickly clarified that such an arrest never occurred.
Speaking outside the police station, Khumalo’s lawyer, James Ndebele, expressed surprise over the developments. He revealed that Khumalo and another high-ranking official were instructed by an IDAC official to surrender themselves for arrest and detention. They were advised to bring an overnight bag, implying they might have to stay overnight.
However, upon arrival at the station, they received a call from an IDAC official stating that they were not to be present due to senior management instructions. Ndebele noted that his clients are yet to receive any information regarding the allegations against them. He emphasized the need for a proper investigation process, mentioning that in an ideal scenario, warning statements should be obtained before a decision is made.
This incident highlights the complexities surrounding allegations of corruption and the subsequent legal processes in South Africa.
