Gregory Loftus testified before the Madlanga Commission, alleging his son, a Durban tow truck operator, was deliberately murdered by police in 2023. Loftus revealed he attempted to obtain an interdict against police officers the day before the shooting, fearing for his son's life. This testimony directly accuses law enforcement of pre-meditated violence. However, other evidence presented suggests the son had a controversial reputation, described as “notorious.” The Madlanga Commission is investigating various cases of alleged police misconduct and political interference. Loftus’s account adds a disturbing layer to the inquiry, raising questions about police accountability and potential abuse of power. The commission continues to hear testimony as it seeks to establish the truth surrounding these sensitive allegations.
