Police have finally received a report on the alleged tampering with crime statistics at several police stations in the Western Cape.
The Independent Complaints Directorate confirmed this week that it had sent the preliminary report to Western Cape provincial police commissioner Mzwandile Petros two weeks ago.
It has been reported the ICD was asked to investigate the allegations by Western Cape community safety MEC Lennit Max in June after SAPS members had claimed they were asked to register cases as inquiries, instead of registering them on the crime administration system.
