In his evidence-in-chief, Buthelezi indicated that he arrested Sibiya, who did not show any resistance, alongside two other officers at a house in Tembisa onThe Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Police Department officer testified that Sibiya was read rights, handcuffed and then proceeded to the suspect’s place to get his identity document.

“This tactical takedown, you said the purpose of it is to confuse the suspect. In terms of its practicality, how long does this confusion function on the suspect? Does it have an element of feeling fear?” Mngomezulu asked Buthelezi. “After you went to the place he resides and you did not find his uncle then you took him to Lethabong. My instruction is that that’s when you assaulted him. After Lethabong, accused number one messed up himself and that’s the reason for you to take him to his place to change his clothes,” the advocate put it to the officer.Buthelezi had testified that Sibiya had asked to change his clothes during his arrest.
