[ICYMI] As the trial for alleged gang leader Ralph Stanfield, his wife Nicole Johnson, and their co-accused got underway last month, amaBhungane can reveal that at the height of the criminal investigation in 2022 and 2023, SAPS management from two police stations and a training academy bought thousands of litres of diesel for their emergency generators from the notorious couple’s John Ramsay Service Station.
On at least one occasion police paid R123/litre for diesel. National fuel pricing data shows that at the time coastal diesel prices hovered around R24/litre.
Western Cape police management say they have now launched an enquiry into what led to the service station being contracted as a fuel supplier

What a load of BS! The mandate of the DPCI has statutory authority to investigate national priority offences, including serious corruption and commercial crime, regardless of the rank of the individual involved in whatever position they may hold. The DPCI may operate within the broader SAPS framework but the Hawks structure and mandate are intended to operate independently of undue command interference. The acting Minister of Police and his special advisor have applied their minds in the context of legal and command framework in considering Lt Gen Mkhwanazi for the role of National DPCI head.
Head of the Criminology and Criminal Justice department at the University of Limpopo, Professor Witness Maluleke says KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Lieutenant General #NhlanhlaMkhwanazi reported offer of a top post within the Hawks should not be seen as a promotion.
Maluleke says Mkhwanazi should instead be considered for the position of National Police Commissioner or Deputy National Police Commissioner, arguing that he has demonstrated his ability to investigate crime and supervise investigations.
He says placing #Mkhwanazi in the Hawks would limit his authority, as he would have to report to other senior officials within the South African Police Service.
Maluleke says the offer could possibly also be an attempt to sideline Mkhwanazi from ongoing investigations that involve senior individuals such as suspended Police Minister Senzo Mchunu, and former Crime Intelligence deputy head Major-General Feroz Khan.
He says the country should therefore be concerned about how someone who has demonstrated the ability to investigate high level crimes, could be moved to a position that may prevent him from continuing with those investigations. MRF
