Former Joburg mayor Herman Mashaba on Saturday launched his new political party, Action SA, promising to re-establish the now-defunct Scorpions to fight corruption.
”Now that the time for talking is over, and the era of action is upon us, I stand before you to dedicate this new party to you, the people of our country,” he said.
”We have to remove the political interference that cripples our police. Our court system needs to be resourced and expanded so that the pace of justice is sped up,” he said. He has undertaken to set up specialised units to tackle priority crimes including the re-establishment of the directorate of special operations, the Scorpios’ official name.
