Feroz Khan’s testimony before South Africa’s Madlanga Commission of Inquiry is postponed after a close relative is killed in a shooting, according to multiple reports. The postponement comes as Khan is expected to give evidence before the commission on allegations connected to his role within law enforcement.

The outlets report that Khan was previously scheduled to testify earlier this year but was wounded in a shooting before that appearance. They say the recent killing of an uncle, occurring on the eve of Khan’s anticipated return, leads to another delay. Details of the shooting and the investigation are not consistent across the provided summaries, but both accounts link the postponement directly to the relative’s death.

Both sources also describe Khan as facing serious allegations that are to be addressed during commission proceedings, including claims related to corruption and fraud, alleged interference with police investigations, and alleged criminal collusion. The differing emphasis is that one outlet frames the postponement mainly around the relative’s death, while the other also highlights Khan’s prior shooting-related delay.
