Matala

In December 2024, Matala referred Brown Mogotsi to a high-ranking police officer known to Witness I, who subsequently met with him, and the officer shared information about an intention to graft a negative finding in respect of the disciplinary hearing against Major General Khan.

“In December 2024, Matala referred me to a high-ranking police officer and I subsequently met him. I knew him as I had conducted an operation with him in the past. He shared information with me of the intention to graft a negative finding in respect of the disciplinary hearing against Major General Khan.”

Witness I does not dispute that Brown Mogotsi said it was Matala who referred him to Witness I and that he subsequently met Witness I.

“No .”

Brown Mogotsi said he had to go back to Matala because the person Matala had referred him to was asking for cash, and that Witness I was asking for cash, which led to the discussion about Major General Khan.

“the person Matala had referred him to was asking for cash. Therefore, he needed to go back to Matala to tell him that you were asking for cash. And that is how it came about that discussion about Khan.”
