Former Ekurhuleni City Manager Patrick Flusk wanted payment to testify for the council in the arbitration proceedings of sacked former police chief Robert McBride.
This came out during cross-examination at the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and arbitration today (Monday) of the sacked police chief.
Flusk will now testify for McBride even though the council presented evidence on Sunday that showed official communication from him that seem to support the council's case that McBride was never given an oral agreement to the effect that he would retain his position.

McBride was put on special leave in 2007 after being charged with drink-driving, defeating the ends of justice and fraud after he crashed his car outside Pretoria in 2006.
The Metro Council said it would still pay his legal fees and salary until his contract expired at the end of November, but Crouse said McBride wanted his job back.
