Premier Modise’s Spokesperson Lesiba Kgwele said the police officials captured on the video that has surfaced should account for allowing lawlessness to take place and for the man to be brutally murdered while they were spectators to the horrific and barbaric incident

Kgwele added that she agrees with Provincial Commissioner Lieutenant General Zukiswa Mbombo that those involved should be brought to book.
