According to online publication 013News, the court found national police commissioner Fannie Masemola's reasons for suspending Manamela to be vague and the procedure followed to do so unfair.
Manamela was suspended in February. TimesLIVE understands this had to do with her allegedly unduly receiving gifts, including vouchers worth thousands of rand, a TV stand, couches and household appliances.
The gifts were allegedly donated to Manamela by several Mpumalanga police stations. While she declared the items, it was alleged she influenced the stations to donate them.
