The Democratic Alliance has called on president Jacob Zuma to immediately fire suspended police commissoner, general Bheki Cele.
This, in the wake of the findings of a Board of Inquiry which reportedly recommends that he be sacked.
The presidency says president Jacob Zuma will make the report public in due course.
DA MP, Dianne Kohler-Barnard, said on Friday that President Zuma must act swiftly and decisively upon the recommendations of the Board.
She also cautioned against him appointing another career politician to the post of top cop but must show that fighting crime is a priority for government.
"He must show that politicians are not tampering with operational matters within the SAPS and he must further show that he is serious about restoring the credibility of public confidence in the SAPS by appointing a national commissioner from the ranks of the police who possesses the requisite qualifications, experience in the police service and in its management and has a track record of professionalism and excellence" Kohler-Barnard said.
