PARLIAMENT, WESTERN CAPE — The National Police Commissioner General Fannie Masekmola testified at the Ad Hoc Committee on 10 October 2025 that Patriotic Alliance (PA) deputy president Kenny Kunene was at murder-accused Katiso Molefe's house more than once.

Masemola testifies as the second witness after Kwazulu-Natal Provincial Commissioner General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi testified. David Mokgohloa posted the video on his @KgoshiKgwadi X account. Malema had asked Masemola about the day Kunene was found at Molefe's house. Kunene had said that he was there with a journalist to assist in giving them an exclusive story for his publication.

Kenny Kunene's link with Molefe

Kunene defended the reason why he was at Molefe's house and denied that he had ties to Molefe. Molefe was arrested for the murder of DJ Sumbody. This was after he was released on bail for the murder of a Vereeniging-based engineer, Armand Swart.

Kunene resigned from his post as the Johannesburg MMC of Transport, and the PA's president, Gayton McKenzie, suspended him from political activity. An investigation into his alleged ties with Molefe was launched. However, the party cleared him of wrongdoing.

Kunene was then reinstated as a member of the Johannesburg council. Shortly afterwards, he was reinstated as the MMC after the PA threatened to pull out of all coalitions with the African National Congress.

EFF MP Sinawo Thambo said that Kunene allegedly paid Molefe's bail. These allegations are unverified.

"I had high hopes for Masemola. Seems to have been complicit and an observer of many things."

Yknipg said:

"Whoever investigated and cleared him should be investigated too."
