Cape Anti-Gang Unit head calls for cops’ axing following attack

Cape Town - In the aftermath of the shooting of five Anti-Gang Unit officers this week, the head of the unit has called for the removal of senior police officials who reportedly sanctioned the ill-fated operation. Disciplinary action is now being taken against the senior officers by a colonel from the Blue Downs Cluster Detectives.

“This request is necessitated by a break in the trust relationship between the commander of AGU and the said officers as decisions taken and implemented with regards to the shooting incident where six members were involved,” reads the letter. None of the 10 officers who were part of the team were properly briefed and the dockets on the suspects they were meant to trace were not gang-related and therefore did not fall within the mandate of the AGU, he said.
