Commission chairperson Justice Mbuyiseni Madlanga requested the extension due to the number of people who are still to appear.
President Ramaphosa appointed the three-member commission last year following allegations by Lieutenant-General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi of the infiltration of the police by criminal syndicates.
