A clear motive to solicit hundreds of thousands of rands from tender tycoon and attempted murder-accused, Vusimuzi "Cat" Matlala, by North West businessman and alleged information peddler, Brown Mogotsi, has been laid bare before the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry.
WhatsApp messages between Mogotsi and Matlala were revealed during the testimony of Crime Intelligence boss, Dumisani Khumalo, on Tuesday.

Mogotsi’s access to confidential police information allowed him to gain the trust of Matlala, who has been linked to the R2 billion Tembisa Hospital tender scandal.
From booking flights for people to attend a presidential gala dinner in Cape Town to large sums of money being deposited into the account of a little-known travel company, Matlala spent large sums of cash at the request of Mogotsi.
During his testimony before the Madlanga Commission, Khumalo made public messages between Mogotsi and Matlala that were extracted from Matlala’s WhatsApp.
