Crimes of the South African Police Service

"Another body: But who cares?
Cop looks on as mob kills alleged thief"


THESE PICTURES ARE FROM A VIDEO TAKEN BY A SUNREADER IN MAMELODI, TSHWANE, ON TUESDAY.

The victim, whose name is not yet known, died in hospital.

Another body . . . but who cares? He becomes the latest statistic in the horrifying list of victims of "people's justice".

As in almost every other instance, the rage of residents was triggered by what they saw as the lack of response by cops to criminal acts.

 ....the battering, beating and kicking did not stop even when a uniformed cop arrived in a police van.

An ambulance eventually took the injured man to hospital.
