Cameron urges Masemola to address police service failures

# Parliament’s Police Portfolio Committee chairperson, Ian Cameron, is urging National Police Commissioner Fannie Masemola to urgently address declining police performance, leadership vacancies and falling public trust. Masemola returns to work on Monday after president Cyril Ramaphosa lifted his suspension following the withdrawal of charges against him. Cameron says the police service must improve its performance, remove rogue officers and rebuild public confidence. He has also warned against the criminal justice system being used as a weapon by those entrusted to uphold the law.
