Senzo Mchunu’s Chief Of Staff Calls Urgent Media Briefing As Police Raid Sibiya’s Home

Suspended Police Minister Senzo Mchunu’s Chief of Staff, Cedric Nkabinde, has called an urgent press briefing in Johannesburg following dramatic police activity targeting Deputy National Police Commissioner Shadrack Sibiya.

The announcement comes as members of the Special Task Force, Crime Intelligence, and the National Intervention Unit reportedly entered Sibiya’s Centurion home on Thursday. Nkabinde confirmed that the media briefing would take place later in the afternoon but did not specify what issues would be addressed.

According to witnesses, a strong police presence was seen at Sibiya’s residence, with heavily armed officers entering the property. Early reports suggest the visit could be linked to either a possible arrest or the confiscation of electronic equipment, though this has not been confirmed.

Neither Sibiya nor the South African Police Service (SAPS) has released a statement about the reason behind the operation, leaving the situation shrouded in uncertainty.
