The ACDP has expressed its disappointment of the disbandment of the Scorpions which was to be voted on by parliament yesterday. The party says most of the members of the effective crime unit will resign because the do not want to be incorporated into the South African police.
ACDP’s Steven Swart says that the ACDP will vote against the legislation which aims to disband the Scorpions. “We are very concerned about this legislation, as there are very effective crime fighting members who will then leave the scorpions and who will not want to work in the SAPS. This will have a negative impact on our fight against crime. We believe that it is disgraceful for this very effective unit to be disbanded when we have such high levels of crime in our communities.
The outcome of the vote pending the disbandment of the Scorpions is expected to be revealed soon.
