The Tshwane Metropolitan Police Department (TMPD) Deputy Chief, Commissioner Sean Bolhuis, has testified that some senior police officers in the TMPD have refused to undergo security vetting.
He was testifying at the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry.
Evidence before the Madlanga Commission has revealed that one of the deputy police Commissioners in the TMPD has not undergone security vetting.
Bolhuis says he believes that senior police officers in the department should be compelled to go through the process.
“In the Metro Police itself, I am a deputy chief of police. Your senior management of the Metro Police must be vetted. If I had a way to force it through, I would, as I’m also the chief of staff, which I will explain later. But it is cumbersome for me to think, and I won’t mention names, that certain senior officials refuse to get themselves vetted.”
