The Chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Police, Ms Tina Joemat-Pettersson, has condemned the unwarranted excessive violence by the police that led to the death of Mr Mthokozisi Ntumba in Johannesburg.
“While we do not want to pre-empt the investigation by the Independent Police Investigative Directorate, the killing of the innocent bystander is unacceptable and adds to the perception of excessive violence sometimes used by the police,” Ms Joemat-Pettersson said.
