Source of information on Mbeki claim died mysteriously in a car accident

Strange stuff, sounds like something out of a movie. The guy that gave the info died when he drove off the road last year. Reports said his alcohol level was 7 times over the limit while his friends claim he stopped drinking.

I wonder what really happened. But it really sounds suspicious.

Here is a extract from News24.

Killed in car accident

A few weeks after Madaka spoke to risk analysts about the allegation, he was killed on August 21 when his car veered off the road near the Brakfontein off-ramp on the N1.

There is evidence that he was speeding and that his blood alcohol level was seven times over the legal limit. But some of his friends told the Mail and Guardian that he had given up alcohol, although another said he had started drinking again before the accident.

Madaka was friends with Vusi Mavimbela, who was director general of the NIA and Gibson Njenje, who was forced out as NIA deputy director general by Mbeki in the so-called hoax e-mail saga that saw director general Billy Masetlha loose his job. Madaka was also the brother-in-law of Trade and Industry Minister Mandisi Mphahlwa.

The Presidency has denied the allegations on several occasions.

"The Presidency categorically rejects all allegations made in the so-called report. The Presidency denies categorically that the president facilitated any money," Minister in the Presidency Essop Pahad told a media briefing in Pretoria earlier this week.

"In the Presidency we have decided to take legal advice and once the legal advice is given the president will take the necessary steps," he said.
