Former MP Adams testifies at the Madlanga Commission and denies unlawfully obtaining or distributing classified Crime Intelligence material related to criminal cases in Orlando.
Adams tells the commission that classified documents were not accessed through improper means by him. He says the documents were slipped under the door of his parliamentary office, and he rejects claims that he played a role in opening the Orlando criminal cases alongside Brown Mogotsi, as alleged by others.
Other accounts in the coverage focus on the dispute over how the commission papers and intelligence documents ended up with Adams and whether any unlawful handling occurred. The central point of difference is the explanation for the origin and movement of the classified material, with Adams maintaining he did not obtain or distribute it and asserting an alternative route through which it came into his possession.
The commission continues to hear evidence on the circumstances surrounding the alleged opening of Orlando criminal cases and the handling of Crime Intelligence information.
