Description

A member of Parliament's Portfolio Committee on Police has laid charges against four top members of the South African Police Force. He is Fadiel Adams, who is also the Leader of the National Coloured Congress (NCC]. The officers include Crime Intelligence Head Major General Dumisani Khumalo. In this interview with BizNews, Adams details allegations against the top officers. He also reveals what he was told in Westville Prison by a former Task Force member who has been on remand for almost five years on a charge of defeating the ends of justice after he refused to carry out a political arrest. “The South African Police Services appears to be a mafia. It appears to be the biggest gang in the country,” Adams says. Meanwhile, he is in no doubt that he will face retaliation - and may even be killed - for taking action. “Now when I took this thing up, I was asked by a very good friend of mine, are you sure you want to do this? I said, why would you ask me this? I have to do this. He said to me, Boeta, you're not going up against the gang boss. A gang boss has two, 300 soldiers. These people have a hundred thousand. He said, SARS will be in your pockets tomorrow morning. Charges will be trumped up against you. Your name will be smeared in the media. I said, they need to do what they need to do because this is our police services, not his. If people are misusing secret state funds to buy cars, to establish political task teams, to have political opponents killed, to have good policemen locked up, then the rest of us need to speak up about it.”
