The African Christian Democratic Party in
the Western Cape said it is shocked
at the report which revealed that rape allegedly committed by police was on the
increase.
The Independent Police Investigations
Directorate revealed that in the 2013/2014 financial year, 53 cases of rape
were opened against police, and in the past financial year it increased to
66.
ADCP Provincial Leader Ferlon Christians
said this is unacceptable.
“We are calling on perpetrators to be
brought to book. If found guilty, hard sentences must be handed down, this will
send a strong message to these police officers that they need to pay if they
break the law.” Christians added.
