INDEX & LIVING EXPOSÉ

THE WITNESS PROTECTION TRUTH

I have never claimed to be a saint — that would be dishonest. I made mistakes, serious ones. But those mistakes do not erase the fact that I became a witness to how power truly operates in South Africa. The system I once served turned its machinery against me the moment I refused to lie under oath.

After exposing what I knew, I was placed into the Witness Protection Programme under the NPA and the NDPP. Entry into that programme requires a classified security-risk analysis; one does not “apply” for it. It is reserved for those facing verifiable threats to their lives. I remained there for 15 months, under an assumed identity, at a secret location, fully funded by the State.

Tabloids later claimed I joined the programme for money. That lie collapses under basic logic: I was not employed by the NPA, the NDPP, or the Hawks. I had no access to State funds. Those monthly payments existed because the threat was real and assessed as such.

Two publications documented my placement: The Citizen and Pretoria News. Both confirmed the protection — then distorted the motive.

I was removed only after David Mabuza became Deputy President. An administrative coincidence too convenient to ignore.

📡 THE RECORD THEY NEVER EXPECTED TO SURFACE

For seven years I kept everything: emails, confidential directives, urgent warnings, internal reports, notes, recordings, and correspondence with senior structures. They were preserved exactly as they were written — in real time — while I was inside Witness Protection or under direct threat. None of the journalists who wrote about me had access to these. None asked for them. None even knew they existed.

What follows is the first time the **real record** is placed next to the **media narrative**. The contrast is devastating.

1. TABLOID CLAIMS — QUOTED VERBATIM

THE CITIZEN – Charles Cilliers:
“He joined Witness Protection for financial gain.”
“He demanded the State fund his press conference.”
“He enjoyed the lifestyle and attention.”

PRETORIA NEWS – Zelda Venter:
“He was removed for instability and misconduct.”
“He caused problems.”
“He could not follow instructions.”

2. NOW THE ACTUAL EMAILS — QUOTED VERBATIM

EMAIL – 29 October 2018:
“I was not forced by anyone to do this, I did this out of my own free will.”
“I cannot afford to be removed from Witness Protection — these people will kill me.”
“Witness protection is extremely lonely and puts severe emotional strain on a person.”
“I have not seen my children, my mother, or my girlfriend once.”

EMAIL – multiple dates:
“A protector is leaking my information — this is life-threatening.”
“Please stop this leak urgently — my location cannot be exposed.”
“I follow every instruction exactly as given.”
“My warnings must immediately be escalated to the National Head of the Hawks.”

These are not interpretations. These are the **original emails** written inside the programme. Nothing in them resembles “financial gain”, “instability” or “enjoying” anything.

3. WHO I WARNED (DOCUMENTED CONTACT LOG)

I contacted, in writing:

  • The Presidency of the Republic
  • The National Prosecuting Authority
  • NDPP Shamila Batohi
  • The Hawks (DPCI)
  • The National Head of the Hawks — Lt Gen SG Lebeya
  • Witness Protection Provincial Command
  • Senior prosecutors & oversight officials

Lebeya responded to me directly in writing — confirming that my complaints were serious enough to reach his desk. The tabloids left that out.

4. THE DEMOCRATIC ALLIANCE: PUBLIC VS PRIVATE

While in Witness Protection, I spoke many times — from my **secure witness-protection phone** — with John Steenhuisen and Glynnis Breytenbach. These conversations are undeniable and provable.

On 6 December 2025, the DA issued a statement condemning the assassination of Marius “Vlam” van der Merwe (Witness D):

“Whistleblowers must be protected urgently.” — DA, 6 December 2025

Yet on the same day, I sent Breytenbach a detailed WhatsApp message explaining that I had already warned her and Steenhuisen about political interference and danger in 2018.

WhatsApp to Breytenbach

Delivered. Read. Ignored.

If I were lying, she would have denied it immediately. She didn’t. Silence is not neutrality — it is admission without words.

5. THE FAILURE THAT LED TO BLOODSHED

My warnings in 2018 were not emotional reactions — they were formal notifications describing the same structural failures that later exposed Witness D. If those warnings were taken seriously, internal leaks could have been contained, whistleblowers protected, and political interference investigated.

Witness D’s murder was not “unforeseeable”. It was the direct consequence of a system that ignores warnings until it is burying bodies.

And now the same institutions that ignored those warnings use his death as a press statement.

6. WHY THIS SECTION EXISTS NOW

The full archive — emails, affidavits, letters, recordings, timelines — is preserved and stored in multiple secure locations. It is outside South Africa. It is automated for release if anything happens to me.

This record is not revenge. It is protection — for me, for future whistleblowers, for anyone who might walk the same path.

They gambled that I would stay silent. They were wrong.

⚖️ THE COST OF TRUTH

For refusing to lie, I lost everything: my work, my name, my family’s safety. The same justice system that should have protected me became an instrument of intimidation. Fabricated cases were filed, and the tabloids obediently echoed every line. They called me unstable, unreliable, desperate — yet none could dispute the evidence that was already in State possession.

Whistle-blowers in this country are silenced not only by bullets, but by character-assassination and bureaucracy. I survived all three. I am alive not because the system worked — but because I refused to die quietly.

💣 WHEELS OF JUSTICE – THE PRISON YEARS

I spent two years and eleven days in prison — without bail — on three allegations I denied from the beginning. After repeated refusals of bail, every charge was eventually withdrawn. No apology. No restitution. Why would prosecutors drop a case they fought so hard to justify if it held merit? Because it didn’t.

During incarceration I witnessed political interference, leaked messages, and a legal adviser plotting new cases against me from a cellphone in court. Witnesses whispered that a former premier met with the prosecutor about me. He had no lawful role in my case.

Newspapers repeated whatever they were fed. But court transcripts and case records tell a different story — one they never printed.

🔥 JUDICIAL CAPTURE & MEDIA DECEPTION

The corruption I witnessed was systemic: prosecutors bending to political pressure, security structures leaking operations, judges influenced through informal channels. Dockets were “lost”; cases delayed until they collapsed; whistleblowers were discredited instead of protected.

Powerful law firms and political networks financed media narratives that distorted the truth and shielded their interests. The journalists who attacked me relied on these networks for information — never on the actual record.

💡 WHY I SPEAK NOW

I obeyed every legal restriction placed on me — even those obtained through dishonesty. But silence has not protected whistleblowers in this country. This site exists because South Africans deserve the full record, unfiltered and documented, not shaped by political convenience.

I was part of that world once. That is what makes this testimony dangerous: it is not theory — it is memory.

EVIDENCE THAT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF

  • Encrypted communications between senior political figures and operatives
  • Financial trails revealing State-funded legal manipulation
  • Handwritten notes, sworn affidavits, and verified recordings
  • Internal NPA, Hawks, and SSA correspondence showing political interference

Every document is preserved, cross-verified, duplicated, and stored securely outside the country.

🚨 TO THOSE STILL WATCHING 🚨

Every attempted intrusion — digital or physical — is logged and mirrored. The archive is decentralised and programmed for immediate release should anything happen to me. The harder they push, the faster the truth spreads.

This is not defiance. It is inevitability. They built a system of fear; I simply survived it.

This is not a confession.
It is a record.
And records outlive everyone.
