According to reports, Mashatile
was on his way home following the last African National Congress (ANC) National
Executive Committee (NEC) meeting in Boksburg, near the N12. Furthermore, the
incident was suspected to be an attempt on his life.
Mashatile said that at first,
he thought it was stones thrown at the vehicle however, his SAPS protectors
later said the impact was more than that.

on Mashatile’s life

concluded a part of their investigation.
Police spokesperson Brigadier Athlenda Mathe said that both Mashatile and
President Cyril Ramaphosa's details had been boosted.
