Cele clueless over planned cop 'strike'.
Sapu spokesperson Peter Ntime said the union was still engaging the police ministry on the issue.
"You cannot have a person who worked for 10 years in one rank. Then you have a unit, a constable working in it within three years is promoted into a warrant officer. What are you saying to the person who has been working at the charge officer?" Ntime said. "If there is a business robbery at Highgate mall now, they are not going to call the National Intervention Unit in Pretoria or the Task Force. They are going to call the nearest police station.
"The first people who will arrive will be either a van or the flying squad. These people are not being catered for in terms of this agreement.""We have engaged our members that they must not embark on a strike . it is an illegal strike." Police Minister Bheki Cele's spokesperson, Reneilwe Serero, said the messages remained rumours as the minister had not been notified of a strike.
