Several police officers have been arrested for contravening lockdown regulations, including liquor-related crimes, police minister Bheki Cele said on Sunday.

Cele said a “small percentage” of officers were arrested after they sought “to rubbish the good work of the security forces during the lockdown”.He said several citizens had also been arrested for offences, including fraudulent lockdown permits, failure to confine themselves to places of residence and illegal gatherings.

The biggest percentage of South Africans were arrested for violating regulations on the prohibition of the sale of liquor. Acting national police spokesperson Brig Mathapelo Peters said figures would only be released at a later stage. “These arrests can be avoided if people can listen and adhere to government’s call to stay home for their own protection against the coronavirus,” Cele said.

JUST IMAGINE

It was going to happen eventually

SAPS , SANDF AND SA POLITICS are full of criminals

they should respect families abeg

Is this acceptable

good

This one needs to clean his house before going out and shout at other people.

This took long enough. What have they been waiting for? 🙄

So GenBheki_Cele these cops were locked up because they interfered with your lucrative business dealings?

Police confiscate the booze then keep it to themselves. It doesn't get to the station

This is exactly why the Twat in the Hat and his comrades are so adamant in retaining the ban: the Party's cadre scum are making far too much money from this. The ANC is directly involved with organized crime which includes cigarette and alcohol smuggling.

Did they buy or sell booze this time ?

Can you give us assurance that you have well trained trusted SAPS but not Criminal Police?

amapolisa ayayityisa iteam yawo smtimes yuuh soloko besezintweni

Imagine teasing a lion with meat when its hungry & dont have means to eat.

lol

Die poes in die hoed moet tsek
