Suspended police commissioner Bheki Cele should not be allowed to resign
from his job, but should be fired, the DA said yesterday.
“Anything short of a dishonourable expulsion . . . would portray the president [Jacob Zuma] as weak on acting against crime and corruption, and even weaker on acting against ANC cronies,” DA MP Dianne Kohler-Barnard said.
“The Public Protector’s finding that Cele acted unlawfully, improperly, and was guilty of maladministration is reason enough for the president to take a tough stance and give the man the boot,” she said. Cele is still waiting to hear whether he has been fired. Zuma’s spokesman Mac Maharaj said yesterday there was no indication when Zuma would make an announcement on Cele’s fate. — Sapa
