Cape Town - The co-accused of alleged underworld kingpin, Nafiz Modack, have accused him of being a liar, saying they disagree with parts of his testimony.
Modack returned to the Western Cape High Court on Wednesday as he faced cross-examination by a host of legal representatives. Modack, who has made a slew of allegations against high-ranking police officials and notorious underworld figures, is facing over 100 charges including the murder of Anti-Gang Unit detective Charl Kinnear, conspiracy to commit murder, the illegal interception of cellphones, money laundering and other charges.
He was dealt a blow when former Sergeant Ashley Tabisher, who is defending himself, questioned him about the allegations that they had a corrupt relationship. According to the State’s case Modack allegedly paid Amaal Jantjies to corrupt the cop so Modack could obtain information about when AGU planned to raid his home.
Modack admitted that he was never in contact with Tabisher but the feisty cop also questioned him about the grenade attack. Tabisher told Modack that he fabricated the story that the grenade attack was a plan concocted by cops to have him arrested. Tabisher said claims made by Modack that he was tasked to shoot and kill him during the arrest were untrue and he further said claims that
Kinnear was present during the planning of the grenade attack were false.
“Mr Modack can you truly say that on the information that I was tasked with killing you? “I am going to put it to you Mr Modack that Colonel Kinnear was never on the base (when meetings were held) and he would never try to kill himself or the family he loved. I put it to you that you are being untruthful.” The trial continues.
