ANC-linked businessman Suliman Carrim is requesting a postponement of his testimony before the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry. He cites threats against his family as the reason for the delay and wants the postponement application heard privately. This request comes after the commission previously heard doubts about Carrim’s claims of medical unfitness to appear. Reports suggest Carrim may have been observed shopping and having lunch despite his stated health condition. The commission is currently considering Carrim’s application for a private hearing regarding the postponement. The situation raises questions about the transparency of Carrim’s testimony and potential conflicts with previous statements. Further details regarding the threats and Carrim’s movements are expected to emerge during proceedings.
