The Madlanga Commission of Inquiry has adjourned to consider an application for a witness to testify behind closed doors.
The commission, which is investigating corruption, political interference, and cartel links within the SAPS, resumed proceedings after a 12-day break.
Chief Evidence Leader Advocate Matthew Chaskalson submitted an application to hear testimony away from the public and media, citing the sensitivity of the information.
However, media lawyer Charles Du Plessis, representing News24 and Daily Maverick, opposed the application.
