Cele and the Western Cape provincial police commissioner visited the Ethembeni community on Saturday.

CAPE TOWN - Police Minister Bheki Cele says the controversial eviction in Khayelitsha has revealed a new level of police brutality.

Law enforcement officers this week demolished four structures because they were illegally erected on city-owned land. During the eviction, Bulelani Qholani was hauled from his home naked as officers demolished the structure. Minister Beki Cele says while there have been allegations of police brutality levelled against the police service, this incident is different.“A naked man was taken out to be seen by the whole world. This is another level of brutality.”“Members of the South African Police Service and Metro Police have structures that look after them. One major problem about law enforcement is that you don’t know where to go next after cases like this.
