DA Spits Fire After Police Power Cut
The Citizen
|July 24, 2025
The City of Tshwane was yet to comment on criticism over cutting power to Moot police station on Tuesday as part of its Tshwane Ya Tima programme to collect debt owed.
The police station was still without power after the city cut its electricity due to arrears of an estimated R150 000.
Police spokesperson Brigadier Brenda Muridili confirmed power had not been switched back yesterday. "SAPS, together with the department of public works and administration, are working to restore the power," she said.
Muridili said service delivery was not hampered as the station had a generator to supply power until the matter was resolved.
