North West businessman Oupa “Brown” Mogotsi has reportedly survived a shooting.
Mogotsi was reportedly attacked in his car in Vosloosrus on Monday night.
It is understood that unknown gunmen opened fire on his car. A bullet-riddled car used by Mogotsi has been recovered by the Vosloorus police.
South African Police Services (Saps) spokesperson Brigadier Athlenda Mathe said she was en route to Vosloorus police station to verify the reports of the attack on Mogotsi.
The alleged political fixer’s name has repeatedly come up in the Madlanga commission of inquiry. It has also featured in parliament’s ad hoc committee investigating KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi’s claims about political interference, corruption and collusion in the criminal justice system.
