Chief Director Mayisela

General Khan called Colonel Sephungu who was unaware of the operation and Chief Director Mayisela who also did not know about the operation, concluding that the operation by Police officers was unauthorized because their superiors were not informed.

“On page 100, he gives you a blow-by-blow of what he did when he got there. For example, the last sentence in paragraph 11, he says he called Colonel Sephungu who told him that he is not aware of this operation that Phakula is busy with. He says in paragraph 3: "I called Chief Director Mayisela, who is Mashaba's Commander. He also did not know about the operation. So he gives you all the steps that he took to arrive at his conclusion that what these two people were doing was unlawful and unauthorised because their superiors did not even know about the operation."”
