South Africa will likely have a new head of the Independent Police Investigative Directorate by September this year.Currently, Ipid, which is tasked with investigating complaints against the South African Police Service and municipal police, is operating under the leadership of acting head Victor Senna. But Senna’s contract comes to an end at the end of July this year.

Cele and McBride had entered into a public spat, which led to the latter taking the legal route to force the minister to extend his contract for another five years.Presenting his budget speech in parliament on Thursday afternoon, Cele said the process to appoint a new Ipid head was expected to be completed in September.

“The structural and operational independence of Ipid will always be protected and safeguarded by the ministry to allow Ipid to discharge its responsibilities without fear, favour and prejudice,” he added.
