Brigadier Nkhwashu was triggered to recall a conversation with Mr Molefe regarding bail because police officer Michael Tau was involved as a suspect being escorted.
“What triggered my recollection about that is when they said we were escorting this suspect where specifically this police officer, Michael Tau, is involved and is one of the suspects.”
Commissioner Baloyi emphasizes the importance that Michael Tau was specifically mentioned in conversations linking Mr Molefe and Brigadier Nkhwashu, or the context does not make sense.
“Michael Tau... you do not get triggered in a vacuum... Otherwise this account has got holes...”
Commissioner Baloyi struggles to understand Brigadier Nkhwashu's account connecting Michael Tau and Mr Molefe without explicit linking details, making the narrative incomplete.
“I am struggling with the account... How you get to connect the two...”
Commissioner Baloyi highlights missing specifics about the arrested suspect being a police officer and the relation to the Armand Swart case as gaps in Brigadier Nkhwashu's account.
“if he does not mention a connection to Molefe, who is your brother-in-law, or if he does not say the suspect is connected to Molefe, or that it has to do with the Armand Swart case...there is just missing information that makes your account incomplete.”
