November 29, 2012

Seven Tshwane metro police officers were arrested on Thursday morning on charges of intimidation and corruption, metro police said.

Their arrests followed a complaint laid by a 23-year-old Zimbabwean hawker who plies his trade in the Pretoria CBD, said the city’s spokesman Console Tleane.

“The hawker alleged that since the middle of September, he has had his goods illegally confiscated by the officers on claims that he was trading illegally,” said Tleane.
