Former Deputy Chief Justice Mbuyiseli Madlanga pressed Brigadier Lesiba Mokoena at the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry about when he would acknowledge dishonesty, but the officer declined to respond immediately. Mokoena said he would address the matter at a future time, drawing criticism from observers who questioned his willingness to accept responsibility. The commission investigates alleged corruption and criminal influence within KwaZulu-Natal's law enforcement agencies.

The confrontation followed evidence that Mokoena denied membership in a WhatsApp group created by Captain Barry Kruger, though later testimony contradicted his claim. The chat group reportedly coordinated police operations but raised concerns about potential ethical violations among members of the Hawks unit. Critics on social media called the brigadier's evasiveness troubling for police credibility.

The inquiry, led by retired Constitutional Court Justice Chris Jafta, examines whether criminal networks manipulated police decisions. Opposition parties and civil society groups have called for greater accountability from senior officials. Public reaction has intensified pressure for witnesses to provide honest testimony.
