National Commissioner: Jackie Selebi Arrested
National Commissioner: Bheki Cele Investigated
National Crime Intelligence Boss: Richard Mdluli under investigation
Wanted Criminal : Save Police after accident and arrest two murder suspects hand them over to the cops
Conman: impersonating Police Brigadier and wanted for several cases help arrest criminals.

Jaaa Neee Criminals making arrests themselves, is this to proof that police are incompetent? Or they are furtherup with police not arresting some of their colleagues to reduce competition.

Or maybe National commissioner is fighting fire with fire.

I am at police station at the moment I am facing a relive commander now, hhmmm not sure if is one of the wanted criminals.

@He helped to arrest Sibusiso Gcabashe, who impersonated dead musician Khulekani “Mgqumeni” Mseleku, according to the newspaper.

Ahhaa! So SAPS sent an impersonator to arrest another impersonator. It's the case of "send a thief to catch a thief". Good one Mr. Conman...
