PP clear Bheki Cele of misusing SAPS chopper
Daily News
|July 04, 2025
PUBLIC Protector Kholeka Gcaleka has cleared former police minister Bheki Cele from accusations of chartering a SAPS helicopter to attend the ANC's 2024 election manifesto launch in February last year.
The DA complained to Gcaleka after Cele was seen arriving at Durban's Moses Mabhida Stadium in an SAPS helicopter.
Andrew Whitfield, the DA's then shadow police minister, accused Cele of making use of the official aircraft as his taxi or e-hailing service to and from a political party event.
Whitfield also rejected Cele and the SAPS's averment that the former minister's use of the helicopter was in line with his "constitutional responsibility as a Minister of Police".
