President Jacob Zuma has spoken out about Ficksburg protestor Andries Tatane’s death for the first time.
Zuma says images of so many police members beating up a man who had nothing in his hands indicate a very strange mentality in the force.
The President calls the incident “totally unacceptable”, saying police are training to handcuff a suspect, not beat the person up.
The images of Tatane being killed have made international headlines.
The six implicated police members will be making their next court appearance next week Tuesday.
