Defence and Military Veterans Minister Lindiwe Sisulu revealed yesterday that six rocket launchers and four mortars were among weapons that went missing from National Defence Force arsenals over the past year.

The missing launchers include three 88-millimetre anti-tank weapons, which can be used to knock out armoured vehicles.

The Freedom Front Plus’ Pieter Groenewald, who posed the parliamentary question to Sisulu, says the losses are alarming.

He blamed it on bad management.
