READER LETTER | Politicians who always spring to the defence of lawbreakers and are always quick to point fingers at the ruling party when police defend themselves should bury their heads in shame.

Police stations are traditionally armed establishments and surely the last places any criminal could think of robbing, but here we are today witnessing the opposite. It will be a matter of time before this matter is politicised instead of being condemned with the utter discontent that it so deserves.

Politicians who always spring to the defence of lawbreakers and are always quick to point fingers at the ruling party when police defend themselves should bury their heads in shame. Robbing a police station is surely an act of treason which we cannot allow as law-abiding citizens.

WATCH | Security measures at police stations under spotlightRifles, pistols, and ammunition were stolen at the Northern Cape police Station when three men broke in at the weekend. How can we expect cops to protect us when they can't protect themselves & their arms? I'd like our outstanding Police Minister Bheki Cele to answer that question publicly. Is it the security measures at police stations or the training, the type of person/s employed, qualifications, political affiliation, the cadre deployment or level of corruption that is the problem. Unfortunately the ANC won't recognize the problem if it looks them in the eyes. I entrusted shantelll_142 with my money since I took rush of investing my money with her platform, and since then I've recovered all I lost to scams. Get in touch with shantelll_142 and get a good mentorship and safe trading.

Government investigation over Phoenix cases looks at police top brass, four security firmsThe government is probing the Phoenix Police Station and its top brass while at the same time investigating the dirty role allegedly played by four local security companies in the Phoenix murders. With all the focus on Phoenix, one would think the thousands of jobs lost and billions lost in infrastructure and commodities, mean nothing. How is it that the zuma kids are still sailing along, totally unscathed by the recent events? They waiting for the jailbird perish 1st? 'Zikalala, who said most of those who were killed were innocent people who were passing by Phoenix when the attempted looting and killings started on July 12' Really? They should've stayed safe in their houses knowing there was a marauding crowd looting and destroying I still can't believe that a real account manager exist I am so happy trading with lovely1642 i never took her serious because I taught she was a scam like others ,until my first withdrawal of R60,000 within just one week of trading! 👇👇👇👇 lovely1642
