Bheki Cele
Police commissioner Bheki Cele is currently suspended. It is also recommended that he be fired and that a criminal investigation be launched into his involvement regarding the irregular awarding of police headquarter leases worth R1,7bn. But Cele has now allegedly written to President Jacob Zuma, asking to be reinstated.
As easy as that.
According to the eNews channel, Cele had asked Zuma to disregard a board of inquiry’s recommendation that he be removed. Cele argues that the board relied too heavily on the evidence given against him and disregarded those who testified for him. According to the eNews report, Cele also feels that there is no evidence that his relationship with property tycoon Roux Shabangu was questionable.
Here’s Cele’s spokesperson Vuyo Mkhize:
I am not in a position to comment on any communication General Cele made or did not make with the president. But calls for his dismissal are nonsensical and should not be given any regard whatsoever.
