#FirstThingsFirst - IPID's Phala Phala report classified as 'top secret'

The Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID) completed an investigation into the break-in at President Cyril Ramaphosa's game farm, Phala Phala, in October 2023, but we are not allowed to know what they found. Its report has been classified as "top secret". Reports by the Public Protector and SA Reserve Bank (SARB) are publicly available, but in response to a parliamentary question, Police Minister Senzo Mchunu did not provide a reason why IPID's report had been classified as "top secret". The team discussed the latest developments in the Phala Phala saga and asked listeners if they see an issue with the IPID report being classified "top secret".
