National Police Commissioner Bheki Cele has strongly condemned the killing of another two police officers in Cape Town this morning.
Thirty-nine-year-old Warrant Officer Gurswin Matthee and 23-year-old Student Constable Cannon Cloete were gunned down in cold blood in Kraaifontein.
They were investigating a routine incident in the informal settlement of Wallacedene when they were confronted by armed suspects and shot dead.
In just a matter of three days, four members of the South African Police Service have been killed and a sergeant remains in hospital after being seriously wounded in Creighton, KwaZulu-Natal on Friday.
Cele says the murders must be regarded as a crisis and called on police in all the affected provinces to pull out all the stops to catch the killers.
