National police commissioner General Khehla Sitole received a tongue lashing from police minister Bheki Cele yesterday. In a letter demanding a retraction of appointments of senior managers by Sitole, Cele was critical of the commissioner for effectively defying him and going over his head. The commissioner was given until 4pm yesterday to retract the appointments.We spoke to Head of Justice and Violence Prevention @ The Institute for Security Studies, Gareth Newham.
