‘He didn’t pay me back’: Mkhwanazi’s ex claims EMPD chief always asked her for money

A former girlfriend of Mkhwanazi, the chief of the Eastern Mpumalanga Police, alleges he consistently asked her for money and even roped her into a theft involving precious stones worth R14 million. The JMPD officer detailed how her financial support turned into a deeper involvement in criminal activities. This revelation is significant as it brings to light potential corruption within high-ranking police positions and raises questions about the integrity of the policing system. The implications could lead to broader investigations into Mkhwanazi’s conduct and the operations of the EMPD.
