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. See More

Cape cops appear for rape
2013-07-22 22:12
Cape Town - Two Western Cape policemen
accused of raping women in their official cars appeared separately in court on
Monday, the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID) said.
Spokesperson Moses Dlamini said a 46-year-old
captain appeared in the Worcester Magistrate's Court and his case was postponed
until Friday for bail information.
A woman alleged she was raped on 20 June in
the captain's official car and that he threatened to shoot her and her son if
she reported him, Dlamini said.
The captain was arrested on Thursday.
A 28-year-old police constable appeared in
the same court, also on a rape charge.
The matter was postponed until Thursday for a
formal bail application. The constable confronted a woman for alleged riotous
behaviour on Saturday, while he was on duty.
He parked his police car behind a school,
before allegedly threatening her with his service firearm and raping her in the
vehicle.
The woman laid a charge and the constable was
arrested the same day.

Johannesburg -
A police captain from Nelspruit was arrested and charged with illegal
trafficking in firearms, Beeld reported on Wednesday.
Additional
charges of corruption and theft were also laid against Captain Godfrey Lubisi,
57, who was arrested at work.
Police said the
arrest followed a year-long investigation, after rumours that weapons were
being sold from the Nelspruit police station for as little as R2 000.
Lubisi allegedly
sold a .22 rifle, a collector's item dating back to 1925, to a member of the
public in January.
Lubisi
reportedly took the man to the store where firearms submitted by members of the
public for later destruction were kept.
He gave Lubisi
over R2 000, as he had apparently agreed to also supply a firearm licence.
The
investigation was delayed because nobody wanted to make a statement, then two
weeks ago, new information came to light.
It emerged that
Lubisi had also illegally sold a Taurus .357 Magnum revolver for R2 000.
On Tuesday,
police also found a large number of firearm licences that had to be collected
from the police station, allegedly under the seat of Lubisi's car.
Police
spokesman Brigadier Selvy Mohlala said police would oppose bail. - Sapa

Amanda
Sheleni arrested for attempted housebreaking is being investigated for other
crimes she may have been involved in, police say.
Cape Town - A
former Steenberg police officer arrested for attempted housebreaking is being
investigated for other crimes she may have been involved in, police say.
Amanda Sheleni
was arrested after she was found to be the driver of a getaway car used by an
alleged gang of smash-and-grab perpetrators last month.
The former
policewoman was fired from the police force last year and is being investigated
for several other possible criminal cases.
Police
spokesman Captain FC van Wyk said: “She was already dismissed from her job last
year in December for a separate criminal case.
“It is the
second time that she has been arrested for being involved in criminal
activity.”
He said police
were investigating how many other cases the 30-year-old could possibly be
connected to.
“She will be
dealt with according to the full extent of the law.
“We don’t know
how many cases she was involved in,” said Van Wyk.
On April 23,
Sheleni’s two alleged accomplices were arrested for attempted housebreaking in
the city centre at a car dealership.
Police arrested
the pair with the help of the City of Cape Town’s closed circuit television
system.
The next day,
Sheleni, who was driving a Toyota Yaris, was arrested.
According to
media reports, the three suspects were caught on camera as they tried to smash
their way into a car dealership. One of the suspects picked up what appeared to
be a large brick and threw it at the shop window.
Sheleni was
allegedly captured on camera driving the getaway car away from the scene.
According to
police, the modus operandi used by the three suspects was to approach the
premises of a business, smash a window and grab whatever was of value.
The trio were
denied bail at the Cape Town Magistrate’s Court last month and are due in court
on May 30.

Four Free State cops arrested [for attempted murder, driving under the influence of alcohol, corruption and
theft]

Independent Newspapers
Bloemfontein - Four police
constables have been arrested for crimes in the Free State, police said on
Friday.
They were arrested on Monday for the separate
crimes of attempted murder, driving under the influence of alcohol, corruption
and theft, said Brigadier Billy Jones.
He said a
36-year-old constable allegedly assaulted his 40-year-old wife during an
argument in Makwallo, Vredefort, at 3.30pm on Monday.
“According to
information, he also instructed her to leave the house, on which she refused
and he subsequently fired four shots at her with his service pistol, but she
was not hit,” he said in a statement.
“The suspect
was arrested and his official firearm and ammunition were booked into the
evidence room.”
The policeman,
who was stationed at the Boksburg police station, was charged with attempted
murder.
At 11.30pm the same
day, a 29-year-old constable stationed at the 10111 Centre in Heidedal was
arrested for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol.
Heidedal police
were called to the scene of an accident near Heidedal police station, where the
driver of a BMW had hit the back of a Nissan Lavina.
“The constable,
who was the driver of the BMW, was then arrested for driving under the
influence of liquor after a blood sample was taken.
He was off-duty
at the time of the incident and was released on a warning, said Jones.
The police
would decide whether to suspend him when the results of the blood test were
known.
Jones said a
third policeman, a 28-year-old constable stationed at Bultfontein, was arrested
for corruption and theft after allegedly selling his official firearm to a
Lesotho man in a tavern for R900.
Jones said the
firearm had not been recovered, but the buyer had been arrested and charged
with theft of a police firearm.
The constable
was served with a notice of suspension on Thursday.
Jones said a 25-year-old
constable was arrested in Philippolis for attempted murder.
“It is alleged
that the suspect was on duty and was involved in an argument over a girlfriend
with the victim in Poding-Tse-Rolo, Philippolis,” he said.
“The victim
alleges that a shot was fired at him with the service pistol of the constable,
which missed him.”
Newly-appointed
provincial commissioner Lt-Gen Thabethe Mpembe said the arrests should serve as
a warning to other police officials who were “custodians of the law”.
He said crime
would not be tolerated.

Cop sold me police docket, claims suspect

Durban -
A Chatsworth
police colonel is being investigated by the Independent Police Investigative
Directorate after being accused by a suspected drug dealer of selling a police
docket to him for R10 000.
The directorate
confirmed on Friday that Colonel Bongani Biyela, the head of the detective
service at the Chatsworth police station, was facing corruption charges after
Strini Naidoo, a suspected whoonga/sugars dealer, was allegedly found in
possession of a police docket earlier this month during a drug raid on his
house.
Naidoo, 39, has
appeared in the Chatsworth Magistrate’s Court, facing charges of theft and
defeating the ends of justice.
Police had
received a tip-off that drugs were being sold at Naidoo’s house in Klaarwater
Road, Shallcross.
The docket,
registered to Chatsworth police station, was found during the search.
The docket
contained a charge against Naidoo – of assault with intent to cause grievous
bodily harm, which was reported earlier this month.
According to a
policeman with knowledge of the case, Naidoo was evasive when asked about the
docket. He then told the detectives that he paid Biyela R10 000 for the docket.
The police
referred the matter to the directorate.
Directorate
spokesman Moses Dlamini said the investigation was ongoing, and no arrests had
been made.
Biyela was
contacted for comment on Sunday, but said he was not allowed to talk to the
media.
Another
policeman said the allegations were a campaign to have Biyela ousted because he
was fighting corruption and drug dealers.
“There are
people within the police trying to remove him. It’s a plot. He would not take
money.
When the time
is right, he will speak out,” he said.
Police
spokesman Jay Naicker said he could not respond because the matter was with the
directorate.
Naicker said
Biyela remained on active duty despite calls by drug activists for his
suspension.
“They remain
mere allegations made by a drug dealer, and we await the outcome of the
investigation,” Naicker said.

Boere weer onwettig in hegtenis geneem
Deur Alani Janeka, 25 November 2013 http://www.landbou.co.za/nuus/boere-weer-onwettig-in-hegtenis-geneem
"Dit lyk asof wederregtelike inhegtenisnemings van boere weer kop uitsteek, waarsku Agri SA.
“Of dit uit onkunde of moedswillig is, kan ons nie nou bepaal nie, maar dit is duidelik dat onwettige inhegtenisnemings van boere weer kop uitsteek.”
Dit is een van die aspekte wat Agri SA se veiligheidskomitee onlangs tydens ’n vergadering bespreek het, sê mnr. Kobus Breytenbach, voorsitter.
’n Paar jaar gelede het die voorvalle ook gereeld voorgekom. Breytenbach sê die voorvalle word in talle provinsies aangemeld, hoewel dit nou veral in Noordwes voorkom.
“'n Opname van die voorvalle word gedoen om die omvang en voorkoms daarvan te bepaal, sodat verdere optrede met die polisie bespreek kan word,” sê Agri SA in ’n verklaring.
Breytenbach versoek mense wat só in hegtenis geneem word, om hulself nie te verset nie, want dan kan die beampte ’n saak van verset teen inhegtisneming aanhangig maak wat wel wetlik vervolg kan word.
Onaanvaarbare aspek
Die komitee meen dat landelike misdaad een van die onaanvaarbare aspekte is waarmee landbouers op 'n daaglikse basis gekonfronteer word.
“Nie net moet hulle daarmee saamleef nie, maar die hoë vlakke daarvan lei tot onaanvaarbare koste en verliese vir landbouers.”
Die toepassing van die Landelike Beveiligingstrategie word ook fyn dopgehou, hoewel die toeganglikheid van polisiëring vir landelike gemeenskappe ’n kwessie bly.
’n Ooreenkoms bestaan wel tussen Agri SA en CrisisOnCall oor die verskafifng van ’n verskeidenheid dienste in krisis- en noodsituasie, en boere word aangemoedig om daarvan gebruik te maak. Besoek www.crisisoncall.co.za vir meer inligting.
Met volgende jaar se verkiesing in gedagte het die komitee reeds die Onafhanklike Verkiesingskommissie (OVK) in kennis gestel dat hy bereid is om met die OVK saam te werk.
Die OVK het vroeër die protokol onderteken waarvolgens reëls vir besoeke uiteengesit word, én waarin bepaal word dat politieke byeenkomste weg van die plaas by openbare plekke aangebied moet word.
