State prosecutor Mzwandile Mrwabe made the revelation during the bail hearing of three police officers implicated in the killing of 16-year-old teenager, Nateniël Julies, in Eldorado Park, Gauteng.

He revealed that in 2019 alone, 3,835 assault cases against the police were recorded. He also revealed hundreds had died at the hands of officers.“Ipid annual statistics from 2018 and 2019 confirm this, because in Gauteng alone, there are plus/minus 150 cases that were reported in this period. It tells you, your worship, that these types of offences are very prevalent,” Mrwabe submitted to the court.

Ndyalvane and Whiteboy were charged with premeditated murder, defeating the ends of justice, discharging a firearm in a public space and unlawful possession of ammunition. Netshiongolo was charged with accessory to murder after the fact, defeating the ends of justice, possession of prohibited ammunition and accessory after the fact.

“He was mentally not well; he had Down's syndrome. We are told this boy was very much fond of police or police cars,” he said. “He [Julies] waved at the police van. Applicant number one [Ndyalvane] took the microphone and chased away the boy. Applicant number one instructs application number two [Whiteboy] to shoot the boy ...” he said.“It is clear that they had the hunger to kill,” he said.
