This includes businessman Stuart Scharnick, who has filed perjury and defamation charges against Crime Intelligence boss Lieutenant General Dumisani Khumalo.

The businessman reportedly faced 34 criminal charges, including hijacking. He says that 18 of the charges ended in convictions, 11 were withdrawn, and the rest led to acquittals.
In an exclusive eNCA interview, Scharnick rejected all the allegations. He denied being Sibiya’s bodyguard, insisting they were just acquaintances.
On Wednesday, while opening cases at Pretoria Central Police Station, Scharnick went further, insisting he and the deputy commissioner shared no special connection.
