The
State is looking into a case of fraud against a police officer in connection
with the death of an 18-year-old in a Beaufort West holding cell.
Two
police officers have been discharged from the police force after appearing
before a disciplinary hearing.
This
comes after an investigation by the Independent Police Investigative Directorate
into the role of the officers who were on duty on the night of Gerdo Karelse's
murder.
Karelse
was mutilated and murdered, allegedly by his cell mate. Ipid found the officer
on duty that night had lied in his initial statement.
