@KenzieGoldberg Confirmation Trap: A deeper phenomenon where a journalist’s commitment to a specific storyline makes them selectively interpret their source’s falsehoods as truth, blinding them to red flags. We are all just watching the dots connect themselves. (and not just in IDAC)

Kyle talking about the #MadlangaCommission like he's a mysterious time traveler warning us about the space-time continuum. 'You guys don't know what's around the next corner!' My brother in investigative reporting, it's an anti-corruption commission, not an episode of Doctor Who.
Kyle Cowan@CowansView

The commission will get there eventually. My problem is how people take snippets of information and build entire narratives from that, outside the commission, when they don't know what is around the next corner.

I imagine an unsaid, but key point made by Judge Madlanga today. It is easy enough to make claims against someone else. Particularly if there is animosity or with nefarious expediency at play. It is easy to “lay charges” (actually a complaint but some prefer the dramatic term “charges”) at police stations or elsewhere officially. But that alone doesn’t justify any form of official investigation per se in response. It ought to require a little more than gossip and innuendo for a formal investigation to follow. Even if on oath. An accuser ought to be expected to give coherent and verifiable facts and preferably evidence in support thereof if formal investigations are expected. As for investigations, if done scientifically, they follow a hypothesis and are open equally to proving something as to disproving it. Scope-creeping, or its equally nasty cousin, “fishing expeditions”, aren’t tolerated by our courts much as it is. Some good lessons follow these public platforms. 🙏

@CowansView The credibility of all those that amplified Johnson's fabrications has been flushed down the toiled with every sick note submitted, every lie exposed and interrogated by a very sober commission and evidence leaders. Facts don't care about your favourite source.

IDAC will suffer the same fate as the Scorpions, because the powers that be have decided it will be so. When did South Africans become sheep who believe everything spoon-fed to them?

Adams back in the mix.

DISCREPENCIES DRAWS QUESTIONS TO ADAMS AFFIDAVIT Baloyi has withdrawn her question, indicating that it will be deferred until Advocate Andrea Johnson's return. Sello says commissioners requested documents from a docket. Sello reminds Padayachee that he says the in-take committee decides on criminal referral. It seems Sello wants to establish where some of the documents would've been and how Adams filed a complaint. Padayachee adds theres an inquiry number on the system. Madlanga notes that the affidavit (below) indicates it was commissioned in Cape Town, yet the stamp utilized is from Pretoria. He finds this discrepancy unusual. Padayachee clarifies that their office stamp bears "Pretoria" as they do not maintain an office in Cape Town. Madlanga expresses that this explanation lacks logical coherence and does not accurately reflect the factual circumstances. While the identification of Perumal is not a point of contention, the primary concern revolves around the date stamp. Madlanga finds it peculiar that stamps would be transported, and he asserts that while a date stamp is not mandatory, its presence implies the document was commissioned in Pretoria. Padyachee concedes. Baloyi highlights that affidavits have been dismissed by the court due to non-compliance, which prompts inquiry into whether the deponent was indeed present before the commissioner of oaths. Baloyi asks if the form (Section 27) is kept by IDAC in its office or at the SAPS. She asks how it works. Padayachee says they have copies. He says IDAC now has exhibit bags. Padayachee says he did not take the statement. Padayachee indicates that the signatures are incorrectly positioned. Sello seeks clarification regarding the individual who affixed the signature. Padayachee states that Adams provided his signature. Sello inquires whether the signature is required to be that of the individual providing the statement. Padayachee concurs. He says the person taking a statement is responsible for the document. Padayachee asserts that Perumal should provide clarification regarding the documents he signed, and it is inappropriate to question him about Perumal's actions. IN SUMMARY: The commission has raised concerns regarding Adams' affidavit, citing several discrepancies within the statement recorded by Chief Investigator Dylan Perumal. These discrepancies pertain to the signature and the location of the commissioning of the affidavit. The commission questioned who signed the statement and the basis for its admissibility in court. @eNCA

@KenzieGoldberg Was surprised he returned after lunch without stomach cramps complaints to consult a doctor. Man is getting schooled from so many angles. And the Adams circus affidavit. SHE swears under oath in Pretoria signed in Cape Town what-what. They are all over the show.

@D_Molatoli The other thing we learned, based on the Adams affidavit, is we must use pronouns on Adams. It is now a she and can time travel to be in 2 places at the same time, Pretoria and Cape Town. Padayachee regretting not getting a sick note.

Colonel Padayachee started stuttering when he was asked by Commissioner Khumalo, who referred the case of General Khumalo and the appointment of Brigadier Dineo Mokwele to IDAC. When he had to say Fadiel Adams he hesitated first. It's not even lunch yet he's already stammering. #MadlangaCommission

@dailysunsa Guessing this is not a serious newspaper, some parody or something because you didn't know about this? Operation Prosper does exactly what the label says, enforcing the law, preventing more CRIMES from being committed.

@D_Molatoli IDAC will only be cleaned thoroughly if legal minds of the caliber of Mahlape Sello SC, or Adila Hassim SC, are put in those positions. I can for the life of me not understand why we do not use the most brilliant legal minds this country has to offer

Chair Madlanga says Advocate Johnson's medical certificate is "one of those useless ones". I'm bored like Commissioner Baloyi was here. These Doctors must be arrested actually. It can't be, as Mme Baloyi would say. Such disrespect!! #MadlangaCommission

@sangxa Champ thought he was controlling the narrative mos. He is now either suffering from Honesty-induced anaphylaxis or Veracity intolerance. Dont expect that loss making outlet to audit, interrogate and publish any retractions because they were misled by their source.

This is the last tweet @PieterDuToit posted about Andrea “Winnie Mandela” Johnson. It was on the 26/06/2026. Nothing to date since the revelations that Andrea Johnson shares case details with accused persons & by her own characterisation, it makes her a rogue element within NPA.

@RealKoenaza The question is, do we care? Northern Cape, largest province by land area but lowest population density. There are probably more people living in a hijacked building in JHB CBD than total living in Orania. Maybe the population is just aging and dying out.
