Sluipmoordaanval op intelligensie baas
Polisie hoë in kar geskiet
NASIONAAL: Die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens (SAPD) het ‘n hoëvlak-ondersoek van stapel gestuur nadat generaal-majoor Feroz Khan Sondagaand 28 Junie 2026 in 3de-Laan, Houghton, Gauteng, geskiet is.
Khan is die geskorste adjunkhoof van Nasionale Misdaadintelligensie.
Die ondersoek word gelei deur die Valke, Gauteng Misdaadintelligensie en SAPD speurders, het die polisie Maandagoggend, 29 Junie 2026 in ‘n verklaring gesê.
Die SAPD se waarnemende nasionale kommissaris, luitenant-generaal Puleng Dimpane, het verder gelas dat die Politieke Moorde-taakspan (PKTT) by die ondersoek ingesluit word om te verseker dat elke moontlike leidraad opgevolg word en die persone wat verantwoordelik is gevang word.
Generaal-majoor Khan sou op 1 Julie 2026 voor die Madlanga-kommissie verskyn het.
“Terwyl die SAPD bewus is van spekulasie in die publiek oor die tydsberekening van die aanval, maar warsku dis nog veels te vroeg om te spekuleer oor die rede agter die voorval en dat dit verbind kan word met Kahn se verskyning voor die Kommissie.
“Die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens beskou pogings om enige individu wat betrokke is by regsprosesse te intimideer, stil te maak of aan te val in die ernstigste lig en enige poging om in te meng met die kommissie sal met alle mag vervolg word,” lui die verklaring.
Dimpane het die aanval veroordeel en die publiek verseker dat hulle gaan alles doen om diegene wat verantwoordelik is, te identifiseer, op te spoor en te arresteer.
Dimpane het Khan ‘n spoedige herstel toegewens.

Attempted hit on top cop
NATIONAL: The South African Police Service (SAPS) have launched a high-level investigation following the attempted assassination of Major General Feroz Khan who was shot on Sunday evening, 28 June 2026 inn 3rd Avenue in Houghton, Gauteng.
Khan is the suspended deputy head of National Crime Intelligence.
This investigation is being led by the Gauteng Hawks, Gauteng Crime Intelligence and the SAPS Detective Service, the police said in a statement issued on Monday morning, 29 June 2026.
The SAPS Acting National Commissioner, Lieutenant General Puleng Dimpane, has further directed that the Political Killings Task Team (PKTT) be incorporated into the investigation to ensure that every possible lead is pursued and that those responsible are brought to book.
Major General Khan was scheduled to appear before the Madlanga Commission on 1 July 2026.
“While SAPS is aware of public speculation regarding the timing of the attack, it is premature and irresponsible to speculate on any possible motive or to conclude that the incident is linked to his anticipated appearance before the Commission. Detectives will follow evidence wherever it leads.
The South African Police Service views any attempt to intimidate, silence or attack any individual involved in judicial processes in the most serious light and any attempt to interfere with the administration of justice or the work of the commission will be met with the full might of the law,” said the statement.
Dimpane has condemned the attack and assured the public that no resource will be spared in identifying, tracing and arresting those responsible.
Dimpane wished Khan a speedy recovery.
