Fadiel Adams Reveals Links to André Lincoln, Brown Mogotsi and Feroz Khan
He is expected to answer questions on alleged misuse of classified Crime Intelligence files and provide evidence for his claims of systemic corruption.
- On Wednesday, suspended MP and National Coloured Congress leader Fadiel Adams testified at the Madlanga Commission in Pretoria, addressing his May 2026 arrest, possession of Crime Intelligence information, and the Political Killings Task Team .
