“I can’t share the time frame but he’s still in the process of suspension. Remember, he was suspended by the DC [disciplinary committee], so there’s a process and he’s following that process,” Motaung told Sowetan on Wednesday.
“The suspension may be expiring, but there are still processes to be followed.”
Chiefs stripped Khune of his captaincy in early December and was advised to go to rehabilitation.
The ex-Bafana Bafana captain appeared to be on track to recovery and even featured for the PSL All Stars during their Carling Black Label Cup against Stellenbosch in January.
