Mam'Mkhize roped into 'Cat' Matlala's drama

On Monday, 7 July 2025, the Portfolio Committee on Police held a media briefing in Cape Town, discussing Vusumuzi 'Cat' Matlala's security company.

Alarming bombshell allegations connecting Shauwn Mkhize to the controversial tenderpreneur were dropped, and it shook social media.

The chairperson of the committee, Ian Cameron, told the media that during a raid at Mam'Khize's La Lucia mansion in November 2024, the police seized a cache of firearms illegally stored. These allegedly belonged to 'Cat' Matlala's private security company. He mentioned that they questioned the Private Security Regulatory Authority (Psira), for continuously accrediting Matlala, despite his past transgressions.

"Eight weeks ago, we started questioning matters of how Mr Matlala continuously gets accreditation from the private security regulatory authority despite his past transgressions."

"A few months ago, SARS conducted a raid at Ms Mkhize's home, the owner of a well-known soccer club. During that raid, a whole cache of firearms was seized. All of those firearms were registered to a security company belonging to none other than 'Cat' Matlala."

Cameron further stated that they questioned Psira about them continuously giving Matlala accreditation, and the response was "they couldn't find a transgression."

The Chairperson pointed out that if an ordinary citizen were to be found with firearms illegally stored on their property, they would face criminal proceedings. "However, all the firearms were returned to the said security company," he added.
