Former head of the Investigating Directorate Against Corruption (IDAC), Advocate Andrea Johnson, and former Crime Intelligence deputy head Major-General Feroz Khan have reportedly been arrested.
According to reports, the two were handcuffed on Friday morning, 30 October 2026.
The arrests come amid allegations previously raised before the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry concerning Johnson’s alleged interference in an investigation involving Khan.
A former Hawks officer, Colonel Kobus Roelofse, previously told the commission that Johnson allegedly provided Khan with confidential information relating to an assault investigation. Johnson was questioned about the allegations during her testimony and invoked her right against self-incrimination.
Khan has also faced allegations of misconduct during his time in Crime Intelligence, which have featured in proceedings before the commission.
Police had not officially confirmed the arrests at the time of publication. The circumstances surrounding the arrests and any charges they may face are yet to be established.
