PRETORIA, GAUTENG— Sergeant Fannie Nkosi, who testified at the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry on 16 March 2026, alleged that businessman Ze Nxumalo interfered with Musa Khawula's arrest, which was discussed at the Madlanga Commission.
Nkosi, whose identity was revealed during testimony, was compelled to testify on video. Nkosi was implicated in corruption as video footage showed him allegedly accepting a bag of money from murder-accused Katiso Molefe. During his testimony, evidence showed that Nkosi allegedly interacted with Nxumalo, whom he reportedly stores as Zenzile EFF on his phone. The evidence also allegedly shows the exchange between him and Nxumalo.
Nxumalo accused of police interference
According to Kaya News, in the messages shown during testimony, Nkosi reportedly asked Nxumalo for tickets to an event for members of the South African Police Service, which Khawula was supposed to perform at in 2024. The officers were allegedly meant to go undercover at the event to arrest Khawula after a warrant of arrest was issued against him. Three VIP tickets and 3 general tickets were purchased.

However, Khawula did not appear at the event, and the alleged arrest did not happen. Despite this, Khawula was arrested in January 2025 and later released.

Netizens stunned
South Africans were taken aback by the alleged revelations.
Jackie Phamotse asked:
“So he bribed the police to do his dirty work?”
Easy_X said:
“Imagine SAPS top cops being controlled by a civilian with orders on what to do on his behalf. Now I see what the General meant when he said that the Joburg police were captured.”

Musa Khawula called out for distasteful comments
In a related article, Briefly News reported that Khawula was criticised after he made comments about singer Nandi Madida’s children. This was after she raised awareness about neurodivergence on social media and revealed that she was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
Madida also revealed that one of her children was autistic and said that raising autistic children is a huge blessing because of their intelligence. Khawula asked Madida if she took a public stand against gender-based violence and used a slur against her child; he received heavy criticism from the public.
