Bheki Cele saddened by police arrests

Police Minister Bheki Cele says it’s disheartening to see top police officers linked to criminality. This as a Deputy National Commissioner is expected to appear in court for her alleged role in multi-million-rand tender fraud.

Her arrest is related to an almost R200-million tender for police emergency warning equipment.

She joins a number of others who were previously arrested, including former police commissioner Khomotso Phahlane.

“It’s a sad feeling, no doubt about it,” Cele said.

“With all the arrests, especially the latest arrests. Arrested [were] quite several senior police.

“It’s a situation that leaves you sad.”
