# ActionSA has raised concerns over the acquittal of two senior SAPS officials on the Phala Phala theft matter on president Cyril Ramaphosa’s farm, despite misconduct findings by the Independent Police Investigative Directorate. Parliamentary Chief Whip Lerato Ngobeni says the outcome highlights weaknesses in SAPS internal disciplinary systems. Ngobeni argues repeated acquittals in high-profile cases undermine accountability and public trust. She confirmed that the party plans to file a Promotion of Access to Information Act application seeking full disciplinary records, while continuing parliamentary and legal efforts to strengthen police oversight and transparency.
