Mixed feelings over new police commissioner
23 November 2017
Johannesburg – The Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID) and Parliament's police portfolio committee have expressed confidence in newly-appointed national police commissioner Lieutenant-General Khehla Sitole, but the DA is less enthused.
On Wednesday said it is confident that newly-appointed national police commissioner Lieutenant-General Khehla Sitole will bring stability to the police force.
IPID head Robert McBride said senior management congratulated Sitole on his appointment.
"We have worked with General Sitole in the past and we look forward to working with him in the future in fighting corruption within police ranks. The appointment of General Sitole will go a long way in bringing stability to the SAPS and enhance focus in the fight against crime."
