Arrested cops from Durban march will be facing multiple charges DailyNewsSA
Durban - At least 40 police officers are likely to face charges in terms of the Gatherings Act, the Road Traffic Act, the SA Police Service Disciplinary Regulations as well as municipal bylaws, following a march through the Durban CBD on Monday.
When no one, from the PC's office arrived at the City Hall to take the MoU, members then marched to the SAPS headquarters in Bram Fischer Street. "Discussions between the provincial police management went through the night until 2am on Tuesday morning. However, they were informed that they were transgressing the law and that necessary disciplinary action will be instituted against them," Naidoo said.
"Following the discussions, three members have been summarily dismissed, 21 will face disciplinary action at provincial level and 20 will face disciplinary action at their respective units at national level. The dismissal of the latest three members brings the total to 11 following the dismissal of eight members in March this year at Cambridge Police Station in the Eastern Cape for embarking on unprotected industrial action," he said.
