GAUTENG. – Advocate Andrea Johnson, former head of the NPA's corruption investigation unit (Idac) and Major-General Feroz Khan, former deputy head of crime intelligence, have been arrested on charges relating to perverting the course of justice. This follows matters that came before the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry. Both were released on bail of R10 000 each, and the case has been postponed to two February 2027.
According to reports, the arrest warrants for their detention were authorised on Thursday (29 October). They were arrested this morning (Friday) and are expected to appear in the Pretoria Magistrate's Court. The police and the NPA had not officially confirmed the arrests at the time of publication.
Johnson resigned as head of Idac in July following testimony before the Madlanga Commission. Khan was dismissed from the police service after he failed to appear before the designated senior official in his disciplinary process. The Commission also investigated the relationship between the two and their respective roles in matters that came before the Commission.
