About
Julius Mkhwanazi is a former police chief in South Africa currently involved in a major corruption inquiry. He recently made headlines when proceedings at the inquiry were briefly halted after a tissue became stuck to his forehead while he was sweating. More significantly, the murder of a whistleblower who testified at the same inquiry has led to the arrest of a former member of an elite police unit. While Mkhwanazi is not directly implicated in the murder, the events highlight the high stakes and potential dangers associated with exposing corruption within the South African police force. The inquiry and related events underscore the ongoing efforts to address corruption within the country's institutions and the risks faced by those who come forward with information.
