Brown Mogotsi’s bulletin riddled vehicle.
Madlanga Commission of Inquiry Spokesperson Jeremy Michaels says they have been engaging North West businessman and alleged African National Congress (ANC) fixer, Brown Mogotsi, on his safety.
This after Mogotsi’s vehicle was involved in a shooting incident in Vosloorus in Gauteng on Monday night.
Mogotsi has not yet appeared before the commission, but a number of witnesses have implicated him in criminal activities.
Michaels has confirmed that Mogotsi is safe.
“We certainly are very concerned for the safety of all witnesses and I should perhaps add that we have been in touch as the commission with Mr Mogotsi around his safety. Of course, it is up to an individual witness to accept witness protection, and we’ll be able to talk about this in a little bit more detail at a later stage but as I say we have been in touch with him as recently as yesterday.”
“From the commission’s side, we have been working with the relevant law enforcement agencies to make sure witnesses are indeed protected. Obviously, that is a matter I can’t divulge too much details about, given the fact that we are talking about witness safety and protection, except to say the commission is doing everything in its power to ensure witnesses are indeed protected and are safe.”
