Meanwhile, Ledwaba says he's willing to testify at the Madlanga Commission if called to do so.
He has been implicated at the commission for allegedly receiving a bribe of over R2-million to release alleged crime boss, Katiso KT Molefe, on bail.
Ledwaba has, however, denied the claims, saying he's ready to clear his name.
