Video circulating on social media

Media Statement
South African Police Service
Office of the Provincial Commissioner Gauteng

GAUTENG – The management of SAPS in Gauteng has noted with disappointment the video circulating on social media whereby a uniformed police woman is seen slapping a member of the public in Tsakane police station.

This behaviour is uncalled for and the SAPS code of conduct advocates for clients to be treated with respect and integrity at all times. Both the Sergeant and the member of public have opened cases of assault and crimen injuria against each other.

An internal disciplinary case will also be opened against the Sergeant.

Ends
