This move, described by Malema as an “important step in the right direction’, aims to shed light on what he termed “pure criminality” within the SAPS.

Speaking during a media briefing in Cape Town, Malema said he was happy that the Ad Hoc Committee had been given the green light to conduct the investigation.

“Tt is an important step in the right direction. What is happening in the police is pure criminality and we have to deal with that,” he said.
