Police minister Bheki Cele says there is a correlation between the number of people arrested and the spread of Covid-19 in the country.

Police minister Bheki Cele said there was a correlation between the number of people arrested by his department and the spread of Covid-19 in the country.

Speaking during a media briefing on Thursday evening, Cele said 243,164 people had been arrested since the start of the lockdown period. The bulk of them came from the Western Cape, which currently accounts for the significant majority of Covid-19 cases and deaths in SA. “There is a relationship that is not very good here. Most of the people that have been arrested, they come from the hot areas. For instance, Western Cape leads in terms of the people that have been arrested, and then Gauteng is second,” said Cele.Cele said he had been in discussion with justice minister Ronald Lamola to see how people who had committed petty crimes did not find themselves with criminal records.

“We don’t want to produce a country of criminals, so it’s one thing that the minister of justice is dealing with - with the police and the courts.” He said level 3 of the lockdown would see the police increase the number of roadblocks in some areas which have been identified as hotspots.“It is regarded as an offence. If you break it, it means you are committing an offence. It’s very clear here what happens to those people that will be breaking the regulations.”

Correlation between blackness and … oh whatever, you get the drift

Does he sleeps with his hat on?

What a bizarre thing to say,where is his scientific proof? 😂

The only correlation is you and your corrupt ways!!! A leopard never sheds it spots. I am yet to see another country in the world where the minister of police is appointed after previously been suspended for corruption! Suspension in government equates to fired in 'real' life so?

He fails to realize these provinces have the most people

Could it be that the police are spreading the virus given the amount of police infected? No of arrests would correlate with contact with the police

Please could someone pull his mask real tight so he can’t speak, this man is a total idiot!

People dont take clowns seriously

And how many rapists, murderers, child abusers, thieves, car hijackers and state capturers has he arrested I wonder. Irrelevant if you don’t say where the police have been stationed. 🙄 No reasoning on this one. He just open his mouth and talk crap. Instead of police focusing on real issues yena he’s busy looking to terrorize people who are going to work, doing no crime. Ayeza kodwa ama elections ngeke sikhohlwe
