Suspended Police Minister Senzo Mchunu is set to resume testimony in Parliament on Tuesday where he will face Members of Parliament who will question his decision to disband the Political Killings Task Team.

Mchunu, who has been placed on special leave, will appear before the Ad Hoc Committee probing claims of alleged interference in the justice system.
