National Police Commissioner Bheki Cele has for the fifth weekend in a row had to attend the funerals of slain police members.

At the burials of two Cape Town police members yesterday, a visibly upset Cele urged officers not to be intimidated after four of their colleagues were murdered and three critically wounded in a week of violent crime.

The commissioner says when police members are under attack, they must defend themselves decisively.
