KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi gave final testimony to Parliament's ad hoc committee on 18 March 2026, declaring no peace with suspended deputy Shadrack Sibiya and accusing him of ties to criminal elements. He also questioned the trustworthiness of Lieutenant General Hilda Senthumule over a docket transfer. The committee, probing national security concerns from Mkhwanazi's July 2025 claims, now drafts its report.
