The African Christian Democratic Party has welcomed Public Protector Thuli Madonsela’s report regarding attempts by the South African Police to lease a Durban property from business tycoon Roux Shabangu.

Police Commissioner Bheki Cele was found guilty of improper conduct concerning the deal.

The ACDP’s Steve Swarts says steps must be taken against the commissioner.

According to Johan Burger of the Institute for Security Studies, Cele’s fate now lies with President Jacob Zuma.

Zuma’s office says the President will comment on Madonsela’s report once he has studied it.

The report also recommends that Zuma should consider taking action against Public Works Minister Gwen Mahlangu-Nkabinde for her role in the scandal.
