Kohler-Barnard, Ms D to ask the Minister of Police
Whether, with reference to Silverton CAS 155/07/2011, (a) a certain person (name furnished) will be charged as a result of the report drafted by a certain person (name furnished) and signed off by the then-acting crime intelligence boss (name furnished); if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
The investigation and a comprehensive charge sheet, with regard to Silverton, CAS 155/07/2011, has been finalised. The suspects in this matter were arrested, on 21 September 2011 and on 4 October 2011, respectively. The case was subsequently withdrawn against the accused, on 4 December 2011, based on a decision by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA).
Based on a decision by the Supreme Court of Appeal, the matter was re-enrolled on the court roll at the Serious Commercial Crimes Court, Pretoria, on 1 April 2015. However, it was struck from the roll, on 6 July 2015, due to the fact that the documentation, which the State would be relying upon, was not yet declassified by the South African Police Service (SAPS).
This matter cannot proceed as the SAPS has not yet declassified the documentation, which was used in the commission of the alleged crimes.
The investigation includes the allegations made by Major General M Hankel, in the report to the Inspector General of Intelligence.
On 17 May 2017, the then Acting National Commissioner of the SAPS, Lieutenant General Phahlane, informed the National Director of Public Prosecutions (NDPP),

Mbhele, Mr ZN to ask the Minister of Police
Has the SA Police Service provided any VIP protection to a certain person (name furnished) at any point after he ceased to be a member of Cabinet; if so, (a) from which date(s) to which date(s) and (b) what are the reasons?
Reply:
(a) Yes, from 1 April 2018 to 16 July 2018.
(b) The South African Police Service (SAPS), was informed by the former member of Cabinet, that an application for an extension of the Very Important Person (VIP) protection was submitted to the Minister of Police. Therefore, protection was provided, whilst awaiting the outcome of the decision by the Minister of Police.
The Ministerial handbook, Chapter 9 "relinquishing of office", reads as follows:
"In exceptional cases, security protection may be afforded to former members who left their official residences, for as long as the Minister of Safety and Security may deem this necessary''.
During the period, 1 April 2018 to 16 July 2018, the department commissioned a threat assessment. The feedback or outcome was that there was no threat and the SAPS took a decision to withdraw the protection from the former Minister of Police, on 16 July 2018.

NB. Due to typing error, it was reported in the response to question 1406, that 78 dockets were lost at Tembisa South. Therefore, there was no loss of dockets in 2013, since the station did not exist in 2013. It should further be noted that there was no loss of dockets or stolen dockets reported at Tembisa South since 2014 up to date. |

2. Newcastle, CAS 607/12/2016, was opened for the case dockets, which were stolen from a vehicle. The dockets were in a laptop bag, inside the vehicle. A suspect was found guilty and sentenced to three years imprisonment. Hlabisa, CAS 83/05/2018, was opened for the dockets that went missing from court. The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), declined to prosecute.
The rest was incorrectly reported in the first reply to the question. The investigating officer’s office was broken in to and his laptop and the mentioned attempted murder docket were stolen during the housebreaking. The accused in the attempted murder case was found guilty and was convicted after the docket was reconstructed by the investigating officer.
3. The two South African Police Service (SAPS) officials were charged in two different incidents, namely the 13 dockets that were lost at Botshabelo, in 2017, as well as the five dockets that were lost by the FCS Park Road, in 2015. In the Botshabelo case, the accused was found not guilty. The accused in the FCS Park Road case, pleaded guilty. The accused resigned from the SAPS, on 14 September 2015.
One member made a statement during the departmental trial, in Madadeni. A case was opened by the Public Protector, but the NPA declined to prosecute. The member in Madadeni was found guilty in the departmental case and fined R500,00. The other member is no longer employed by the SAPS.
The rest was incorrectly reported in the first reply to the question. The member was not charged, because the docket got lost at the Pretoria North Magistrates Court.
4. The Minister will determine if he should make a statement on this matter.

Marais, Mr S to ask the Minister of Police
(1) With reference to two cases, CAS 259/10/2015 and 261/10/2015, registered at the Worcester Police Station, (a) what are the reasons that the two cases are delayed and not sent to the State prosecutor at the Worcester Magistrate Court, (b) why was the Western Cape Police Ombudsman not able to conclude on the cases subsequent to them being referred to him and (c) what is the usual time frame for such cases to be concluded and referred to the prosecuting authorities;(2) whether he has found that the delay is intentional; if not, why has there been a time delay of three years; if so, (a) what steps will his department take to speed up the investigations and (b) what consequences will the officials who are not dealing with the cases promptly suffer? (2) whether he has found that the delay is intentional; if not, why has there been a time delay of three years; if so, (a) what steps will his department take to speed up the investigations and (b) what consequences will the officials who are not dealing with the cases promptly suffer?
Reply:
(1)(a) The two case dockets, Worcester, CAS 259/10/2015 and 261/10/2015, were submitted to the Senior Public Prosecutor (SPP), on several occasions and returned with guidance on further investigations to be conducted. The last date that the case dockets were returned, was on 5 September 2018 and the Investigating Officer is busy dealing with the instructions, which were issued by the SPP.
(1)(b) The Ombudsman on Policing, in the Western Cape, reports to the Provincial Government and not to the South African Police Service (SAPS). The SAPS can, therefore, not respond to this part of the question.
(1 )(c) The complexity of these cases differ from one to the other and therefore, a standard acceptable time frame cannot be determined.
(2) It has been found that the delay was not intentional. The case was no//e prosequi (refused to prosecute) and was only re-opened by the SAPS, after the complainant approached the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA),to seek clarity.
(2)(a) Not applicable.
(2)(b) Not applicable.

Kohler-Barnard, Ms D to ask the Nlinister of Police
Whether, with reference to the Second-Hand Goods Act, Act 6 of 2009, (a) each police station has dedicated officers who visit (a) second-hand goods stores and (b) scrap metal dealers to check that they are taking identity document numbers; (2) have the regulations according to the specified Act been completed in each case; if not, why not; if so, on what date?
Reply:
(1)(a)(b) Designated Police Officers (DPOs) are appointed at police stations, to conduct compliance inspections in terms of the Second-Hand Goods Act, 2009 (Act No 6 of 2009). This includes registered second-hand goods stores and scrap metal dealers. However, at most police stations, the appointed DPO is also responsible to conduct compliance inspections, in respect of the firearm and liquor environments.
As part of the compliance inspection, all records maintained by the registered second-hand goods dealer, are checked by the DPO to ensure that they are taking identity document numbers. The compliance inspection includes the verification of copies of the applicable official document, as proof of the identity of the person, who either acquired or disposed of goods, as prescribed in Sections 21(4) and (5) of the Second- Hand Goods Act. The proof of identity can be a temporary South African identity certificate, a South African identity document, a valid current passport or a valid current South African driving licence.
(2) Yes, the regulations, as required in terms of Section 41 of the Second- Hand Goods Act, for the accreditation of Second-Hand Goods Dealers
Associations was completed and promulgated on 6 September 2011, in the Government Notice, No R703. The Regulations for Dealers and Recyclers was completed and promulgated, on 3 April 2012, in the Government Notice, No R285.

Dreyer, Ms AM to ask the Minister of Police
(1) Whether, with reference to his reply to question 1782 on 18 June 2018, and the fact that the Germiston Police Station has five sectors, he has found that the police station should have 80 visible police officers, in correlation with four members per shift per sector for four shifts; if not, how does he expect the police station to fulfil its requirement of two sector vehicles patrolling in each sector at all times; (2) with regard to the inevitability of police officers taking leave, including but not limited to family responsibility, sick leave, study leave, annual leave, what is the total number of additional visible police officers that the station must have in order to ensure that two vehicles per sector are patrolling at all times?
Reply:
(1) The Germiston Police Station is currently unable to fulfil the requirement of two vehicles per sector, due to a shortage of resources.
(2) The Germiston Police Station has five sectors with two members per sector and one vehicle, per sector, implying a total of 40 members. In order to fulfil the requirement of two vehicles, per sector, an additional 40 members are required.

(1) Whether, with reference to his reply to question 1787 on 18 June 2018, and in view of the fact that the Edenvale Police Station has four sectors, he has found that the optimal number of visible police officers should actually be 64, in correlation with four members per shift per sector for four shifts; if not, how can the specified police station be expected to fulfil its requirement of two sector vehicles patrolling each sector at all times; (2) given the inevitability of police officers taking leave, including but not limited to family responsibility leave, sick leave, study leave and annual leave, what number of additional visible police officers the police station must have in order to ensure that two vehicles per sector are patrolling at all times? NW2836E
Reply:
(1) The Edenvale SAPS is currently unable to fulfil the requirement of two vehicles per sector, due to a shortage of resources.
(2) The Edenvale Police Station has four sectors. One vehicle and two members are deployed, per sector, per shift, implying a total of 32 members. In order to fulfil the requirement of two vehicles per sector, an additional 32 members are required.

Mhlongo, Mr P to ask the Minister of Police
(a) What is the status of the investigation into the death of a certain person (name and details furnished) and (b) who is the investigating officer?
Reply:
a) Regarding the investigation into the matter that has been referred to the South African Police Service (SAPS) by the Honourable Member, fingerprints, which were found on the vehicle, have not yet been linked to anyone on the Automatic Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS). In addition, the recovered cartridges have also not been linked on the Integrated Ballistic Identification System (IBIS). They have, however, been stored on the IBIS’s latent system. The IBIS will automatically respond in the event of a match being made. Comprehensive investigative strategies have been applied through the use of Section 205 of the Criminal Procedure Act, 1977 (Act No 51 of 1977). Information has been received from members of the community, family members and other sources. Follow-ups have been made throughout the country but nothing of evidential value, which links to the case, has surfaced. Various informers and sources have been utilised and tasked to assist with the gathering of information. The case is still active and is receiving the required attention.
b) The particulars of the investigating officer cannot be disclosed to ensure that the case is investigated without fear or favour.

Kohler-Barnard, Ms D to ask the Minister of Police:
(1) Whether the Civilian Secretariat for Police has completed the revised Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID} Bill; if so, on what date will it be presented to the Portfolio Committee on Police; (2) whether the specified Bill has been sent to the Cabinet for approval; if so, on what date; (3) whether the Bill has been approved by Cabinet; if not, on what date can approval be expected; if so, what are the relevant details; (4) has the Bill been given to the Chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Police; (5) why was the specified committee put in a position of creating a Committee Bill in order to comply with the Constitutional Court ruling in the case of McBride v Minister of Police and Another (CCT255/15) [2016]? NW2415E
Reply:
(1) The revised draft Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID} Amendment Bill has been completed. The draft, Bill will initially be submitted to the Minister in order to obtain approval to process it through the various Justice, Crime Prevention and Security working group.
(2) The draft Bill has not yet been processed to Cabinet. The Department needs to obtain approval to process it through the V\lrious Justice, Crime Prevention and Security (JCPS) working group.
(3) The Constitutional Court ordered Parliament to correct the defects in the IPID Act, 2011 within 24 months from the date of the order which was handed on the 6th
FOR WRITTEN REPLY: QUESTION 2241: DATE OF PUBLICATION IN INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER: 17 AUGUST
2018: (INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER NO 23-2018)
September 2016. The process by the Department to draft the amendments to the Act commenced in February 2017. However, taking into account the finding made by both the High and the Constitutional Court relating to the operational structural independence of the IPID, the process of amending the IPID Act, 2011 was extended to other provisions of the Act. This process took longer than anticipated.
As a result, and taking into consideration the timeframes set by the Constitutional Court, the Portfolio Committee suggested that a draft Bill which focused solely on the Constitutional Court Judgment, should be processed as a Committee Bill.
(4) After the first briefing of the Committee Bill by the Parliamentary Legal Adviser, a copy of the draft Bill that was drafted by the Department was made available to the Chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Police.

The Honourable Member is respectfully requested to provide the correct Investigation Case Docket Management System number.
b) The incorrect format of the case number has been provided for Verulam, CAS 2017/10/20.

Reply:
(1)(a) The two (2) case dockets (Worcester CAS 259/10/2015 and 261/10/2015) were submitted to the Senior Public Prosecutor on several occasions and received back with guidance on further investigations to be conducted. The last date that the case dockets were received back was on 5 September 2018 and the Investigating Officer is busy dealing with instructions issued by the Senior Public Prosecutor.
(1)(b) The Ombudsman on Policing in the Western Cape reports to the Provincial Government and not to the South African Police Service. This office can therefore not respond to this question.
(1)(c) The complexity of these cases vastly differ from one to the other and therefore a standard acceptable timeframe cannot be determined.
(2) This office has found that the delay is not intentional. The case was nolle prosequi and was only re-opened by the police after the complainant approached the NPA seeking clarity.

What is the total cost to date to his department of the (a) legal fees for the Constitutional Court case of McBride v Minister of Police and another (CCT255/15) [2016] and (b) restructuring of the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID) instituted by the former Minister of Police Nathi Mthethwa. (2) Whether, with regard to the costs incurred by his department as results of the former Minister's alleged unlawful actions, there are any plans for the former Minister to face any consequences, including legal or financially reparatory consequences; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
1. The total cost paid on legal fees, towards the Constitutional McBride v Minister of Police and Another (CCT255/15) Department: Civilian Secretariat for Police Service is R 9 041 232.47
In the matter of McBride v Minister of Police, the Minister has been cited in his official capacity. Even though cost orders have been given against public officials who have been deemed to have acted mala fide (bad faith), in this matter both the High Court and the Constitutional Court did not order the
Minister to pay the costs of the proceedings de bonis propiis (out of his own pocket).
3. So there are no plans for the former Minister to face any consequences, including legal or financially reparatory consequences
