The Gauteng Provincial Commissioner of Police, Lieutenant General Deliwe de Lange, is condemning the continued attacks and killings of police members following the recent attack on two on-duty officers, where one member was killed.
It is reported that two police officers were conducting routine patrols on Monday evening, 27 March 2017, in the Kliptown area in Soweto when they noticed and stopped a suspicious Volkswagen Polo with six occupants inside.
The unknown suspects allegedly then shot at the police officers. A 33-year old Constable was fatally wounded, while his partner escaped unharmed.
