The South African Police Service says Fadiel Adams is wanted for allegedly obstructing an investigation into the killing of ANC Youth League leader Sindiso Magaqa. The South African Police Service says its Political Killings Task Team is calling on National Coloured Congress (NCC) leader Fadiel Adams to present himself at his nearest police station in connection with charges of fraud and defeating or obstructing the course of justice. National police spokesperson Brigadier Athlenda Mathe said officers are in possession of a J50 warrant for Adams’ arrest.

“The warrant relates to serious allegations that he interfered with ongoing investigations into the murder of the late ANC Youth League leader, Mr Sindiso Magaqa,” Mathe said. She said investigators had found that Adams allegedly interfered with a convicted hitman at a sensitive and advanced stage of the probe. Mathe said police had made extensive efforts to locate Adams, including visiting multiple addresses linked to him. She said arrangements were made with his attorney for him to hand himself over on Monday at Cape Town Central Police Station, but he did not do so.
