Nineteen police officers have been
suspended for corruption and defeating the ends of justice from three different
police stations in Limpopo .
The officers were arrested on the 05th
of this month and appeared in court where they were granted bail of between
R1 000 to R10 000 each.
The police officers allegedly accepted
bribes and escorting illicit cigarettes. They are expected to appear in court
in February 2015.
Police Spokesperson Hangwani Mulaudzi said
they have now been suspended without pay.
“We are also busy with our internal
processes to make sure that we fast track them and also to ascertain the fact
that as the police we have the zero tolerance when it comes to corrupt
activities within SAPS.
We will do everything to make sure that
these people have exited from the service.” Mulaudzi added.
