Two rogue detectives styled themselves on the lead actors movie Bad Boys and did “whatever they needed to solve a case”…even if it was illegal‚ the newspaper reported.
The Springs cops are alleged to have used “unorthodox” methods of interrogation to coerce confessions‚ and they got away with it for years.
On Tuesday‚ Gauteng’s police commissioner announced that one of the detectives had been arrested‚ along with two police informants‚ in connection with the killing of three murder suspects.
The second detective was on the run‚ along with a third informant.
The Gauteng head of detectives‚ Major-General Vincent Leshabane‚ declined to name the murdered men or the reason for their deaths‚ other than to say the killings happened during “interrogations“.
