His proud of arrests and warning but our people are being abused the damn nerve, all usless, until South Africans retaliate and kill a police man or soldier then they will wake up and do something, but for now the abuse continues

Do the police test those they arrest before detaining them? Is this not another way of spreading the virus?

I bet all arrested ones are all blacks and warning ones are whites Don't get me wrong,I'm not racist...I have a White friends

You should equally report police who broke their line of march chief

We were verbally abused by an SAPoliceService officer on our return from a clinic dentist appointment. Very arrogant, did not want to believe us, threatened us with arrest just for having a medical appointment. Not good, SAPoliceService

Are they going to lock all those arrested together or separately? What if one of them has the virus?

I don't care how many u beat or shoot do watever it takes some of us r behind u old pple need 2 be prayed so dat dey stay home mxm shoot more

Why they are not arrested and being watched like anyone else in township?

Sobza_iHlubi How many are hospitalized from rubber bullets injuries?

Unfair, I see thousands in the streets.
