Ekurhuleni Police Deputy Chief Julius Mkhwanazi Caught in Corruption Scandal

Deputy Chief Julius Mkhwanazi of the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Police faces multiple fraud and corruption allegations, from illegal blue‑light distribution to the misuse of municipal vehicles for a private security firm. Despite an IPID report recommending action, the city promoted him to Acting Chief after the former chief was suspended. The Democratic Alliance calls the police force a "mafia‑style" operation, demanding transparency and prosecution.
