Please be careful
of JMPD at William Nicol by Monte Casino. Last night Pulling people over,
harassing them, handcuffed the man & thrown into the back of a JMPD... vehicle. The Other cop drove the woman's BMW
with her in it, then left her alone at 3 am in a field near Alexandria with the
car, but took her keys. Luckily she was able to phone us for help & we got
there quickly before the cops could come back. We went home to fetch spare keys
but on returning found her BMW had gone. ( the cops came back & took the
vehicle) We spent the next 3 hours going to all Police stations in the area,
Douglasdale, Sandton, Bramely & even wet back to Monte Casino where the
road block was to try find her boyfriend to no avail. Eventually 3 hours later
( 6 am) the new police shift at Sandringham police station ( Edenvale of all
places) allowed him to phone his girlfriend and tell her where he was being
held in lockup. The police would not show their ID card, put handcuffs on so
tight that his wrists bled, and mocked him saying good luck finding your
girlfriend ever again. This is shocking !
They tried to take blood but couldn't even do this, just bruised his forearm
trying. He is now out on R1000 bail, but must appear in court in November for
alleged drunken driving charges.
The mind boggles as to what they would have done to his girlfriend had
we not got there in time. This is what happens regularly by our Police force.
In most countries the Police are there to protect you, however in SA the Police
are actually amongst the very criminals that we need to be scared of.
We have some of the vehicle registration nos of JMPD vehicles,
recordings of the way this couple were treated & abused . so hopefully
there is a small glimour of hope that justice will be served upon these thugs
we call our Police force. We will take this further in the hope to prevent
innocent people from being put through this horrific ordeal again.
