Maweni will be making another appearance on Wednesday, 21 January 2026, to allow more evidence to be gathered and presented in court.

According to user @ADVBarryRoux, Sauls has raised eyebrows because of his remarks. So how does Mzansi feel about this? Below are some of the reactions from the online community.

@TheJustCaused reacted:

"This woman was just flaunting cash on social media, rubbing salt into the wounds of the victim(s)"

@StarJay_23 replied:

"So many allegations against GP police, these allegations need to be investigated, and if they are proven to be true, rotten apples should be removed from service."

@ETshamugero asked:

"Why can't he go to the nearest police station/?"

@Gadfly342043 replied:

"In criminal justice, evidence rules; not rumour. Until Saul's claims were sworn facts, he was not a whistle-blower. Big claims, zero proof, loud politics. Parliament is not a tavern. Insinuation is not indictment. And noise is not truth."

@JolaNhlx was on the fence:

"If you believe anything that comes out of that man's mouth, I am so sorry, but I am judging you."
