JOHANNESBURG – Police Minister Bheki Cele on Monday spoke out against comments made by Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema against the police, saying they are reckless, irresponsible and dangerous.
Addressing supporters in the Free State on Sunday, Malema issued warnings against the police.
“We will treat them the same way we treated them in the 1980s. We will not only fight on their pickets, we will also go to their homes and fight them in their own homes with their own families. We are not afraid of the police. “
This has drawn the attention of the Popcru police union, which also considered the comments irresponsible, saying they could have dire consequences.
Cele said Malema crossed the line with her comments: “You are not going to threaten the police and you think the police will fold their arms and back down. The work of the police is registered in the Constitution, Section 205 sub-three, which is to protect, prevent, investigate and enforce the law ”.
