Where is this? In South Africa? I nearly said those police are Kaiser Chiefs supporters, but on the same line, I think they are all mad, hence we don't respect police, if they continue behaving like law onto themselves, instead of helping us, how do we respect them. The police ministry need a deep look of itself, do they really represent what the police should do to the communities? is the minister up to it? is he the right person to head this important department of the state?

How does an ordinary South African Police officer makes R30K legally? Where did he get this money?From what they earn he cannot save 30K.The fact that he did not save this money in the bank leaves much to be desired.By not putting this money in a bank he really risked what has happened. Someone knocked him off? One of his Police friends told these 4 "Crooks" that their colleague had 30K in his home safe. Because these 4 disappeared with the money their informer told his colleague that he knew who had stolen his money.
Once assualt and torturing charges have been instituted against these officers,charge the one who had 30k in his house with possession of stolen money. Bloody crooks.

And so we slowly turned our country into West Africa and the Middle East. We develop a system of fear and resentment in our public lead by the "protectors of society", corruption runs our political system and corporate sectors, violent crime runs rampant and it's ok because 'it's just those poor people at least it's not me,' we say.

Ask these foreigners we dislike so much why they left their places, they'll tell you about what happened to their countries. Then ask them why they chose South Africa, because for now it's ok but they ALL agree that the trouble in their countries started just like what we're doing to each other here now.

Fine it's still ok, we may not suffer too much individually now but our kids (abo YOLO) and grand kids may never feel that safety of the wise abadala, that reverance when in KZN of umuzi wenkosi, in the midst of a bustling city the ubuntu of iKasi.

Hamba kahle 'zwe lami, iNingizimu Afrika, ikhaya lami!

HAAHAHAH!!!! you know what Piyega will say don't feel sorry for them, i don't know why do policemen behave in such a barbaric manner, clearly this is not fair to fellow south Africans, if a person has committed crime or any wrong doing, he should be taken to the police Station whole as he is without the beating or torturing by police men in the street, i wish they can lock them up which is highly unlikely. it's ok people are very good in revenging it will catch up with one of them one of the bad days, watch the space., cause they provoking people to retaliate
