Johannesburg - Former Ipid boss Robert McBride says the South African Police Service has a systematic issue of patronage which seeks to serve corrupt elements within the service.
He used an example of one of his investigators at Ipid, Mandla Mahlangu, who was promised a job by a crime intelligence official Tlou Kgomo. “With appointments in the forensics lab, every year will be connected to assisting and facilitating further corruption and maladministration. In that process, everybody has the interests of protecting the seniors because it is the seniors that put them there and they have an obligation to protect,” McBride said.
“And unless you have a strong hand about good governance, and respect for the rule of law and the constitution you will never get the Saps right. It is a system that has not been challenged, it is a system on its own and affects all of our lives. We will have this commission, your lordship will make recommendations and they will be carried out but the patronage system within the Saps will stay unchanged,” said McBride.
