National Police Commissioner, Lieutenant-General Khehla Sitole, has sacked one of his deputies, Bongang Ngwenya.
This followed earlier “damning allegations of her alleged involvement in crimes.”
The former Deputy National Commissioner for Human Resources appeared briefly in the Palm Ridge Magistrate’s Court on Monday after she was arrested by the Investigating Directorate on criminal charges relating to corruption, fraud, theft and money laundering.
National police spokesperson, Brigadier Vishnu Naidoo, said “following due processes, the National Commissioner initially suspended Bonang Mgwenya on 15 October 2020 during which time a departmental investigation was conducted.”
“Mgwenya was subsequently charged, found guilty and summarily dismissed yesterday, 12 November 2020,” he said.
The National Commissioner remains resolute in his efforts to clean the SAPS of any form of wrongdoing by members of all ranks.
