Gauteng Premier Lebogang Maile calls on men to lead the fight against GBV after a police officer allegedly killed his girlfriend.
Gauteng acting Premier Lebogang Maile urges men to lead in combating GBV after a police officer allegedly killed his girlfriend in Eldorado Park.
Maile was visiting the family of Chesnay Keppler in Eldorado Park. Keppler, a Gauteng Crime Prevention Warden, was allegedly killed by her boyfriend, who was a police officer. Lizzy Suping, a spokesperson for the Independent Police Investigative Directorate, said the man used his service pistol to kill Keppler.
“It is hurting to see that the woman was killed by the man who was supposed to protect her. I am told that the man is in the hospital, and we are praying that he must not die so that he can face the crime that he committed because death will be an easy way out.” “Law enforcement officers are exposed to high levels of stress, trauma, and dangerous working conditions daily. The emotional toll of these pressures, coupled with the stigma surrounding mental health issues, has led to devastating consequences.”“It is unacceptable that the very individuals tasked with ensuring the safety and well-being of others often find themselves struggling in silence, unable to access the help and support they need.
