The July 2021 riot report shows very clearly that the SAPS’ problems are so much bigger than just one person and South Africa deserves better.
South Africa needs an effective, driven police force that strives to serve the country’s citizens.

Short excerpt from the report:
“To summarise, the police’s response was not effective and appropriate under the circumstances. It may be understandable that they did not have intelligence upon which they could have planned their operations in the initial stages of the looting, but once it went into subsequent days, they should have changed their plans.”
