More South Africans have died
this year at the hands of police compared with last year, causing a spike in
civil liability claim payouts, according to a watchdog group’s analysis
released this week. The report from the Independent Police Investigative
Directorate, a national law enforcement accountability organization, revealed
Wednesday that police-involved rapes and torture incidents have also increased
over last year.
There is concern that costly civil liability claims – currently
estimated at 26 billion rand ($1.8 billion) -- would strain the South African Police Service national
budget. The national police commissioner has downplayed the report and blamed
the volume of claims on a highly litigious climate.
“The SAPS is making provision for the possibility that a third of
its national budget may have to be paid out to cover for criminal and civil
claims against SAPS members, who in part are completely without discipline,”
Dianne Kohler Barnard, a member of the South African parliament, told South
African newspaper group Independent
Online.
Police Commissioner Gen. Riah Phiyega had doubts that the agency would
pay out all of the claims against officers. "We will take our time to
defend whatever is defendable to ensure whatever we pay is meritable,” Phiyega
said in a media briefing Wednesday.
There were 244
recorded deaths in police custody this year, up by 4 percent from 234 in 2014,
according to the watchdog group’s report.........

The Independent Police Investigative Directorate (Ipid) on Friday said
it had arrested a South African Police Service (SAPS) sergeant, based at North
West Vispol, for allegedly raping a woman who was appearing in court on a theft
charge.
“The alleged rape occurred at the Nelspruit Magistrate’s Court on 13
August. It is alleged that the 17-year-old victim was appearing in the said
court on a theft charge of shoplifting,” the police watchdog’s national
spokesperson, Moses Dlamini, said.
The woman said that when her case was adjourned in court, she was taken
to a room where the policeman demanded sex and, upon refusal, the officer
threatened to influence the prosecutor to slap her with a lengthy sentence. The
policeman then allegedly raped the detainee in that room.
“This happened after the suspect had separated the victim from other
detainees on the pretext of taking her to rectify an incorrect court date. Ipid
conducted the investigation and arrested the suspect on a charge of rape. The
suspect handed himself over to Ipid and was arrested in the presence of his
legal representative,” said Dlamini.
“He appeared at the Nelspruit Magistrate’s Court on 17 August on a
charge of rape. He was released on R500 bail with the condition that he must
not interfere with witnesses.”
The case was remanded to October 30.
Ipid has also made a recommendation that the SAPS initiate disciplinary
action against the police officer.
