Crimes of the South African Police Service

South Africans have become accustomed to media reports alleging involvement of policemen in serious crimes. The Institute of Race Relations has become increasingly concerned at the number and nature of these reports. To determine the scale of the problem, the Institute assigned a researcher to source as much information as possible on the involvement of police officers in committing crime.

The re...sults were alarming.

The Institute consulted journalists, media reports, and information from the Independent Complaints Directorate (ICD) . Within a week, a list of over 100 separate incidents alleging and/or confirming the police’s involvement in serious crimes was drawn up.

The Institute’s researchers stopped looking for more incidents after compiling this list of the first 100. Without exception, the 100 incidents identified in this report are related to very serious, often violent, pre-mediated criminal behaviour. These included RAPES, MURDERS, ATM bombings, armed robberies, house robberies, and serious assaults.
